Your innocence has gone
Oh you have lost your sense of wonder
Embraced you as you shone

But tore your child-like world asunder

The led you on and on but they

Didn't mean to do you wrong

Darling


It's your greatest shade of blue
Lose it before it bleeds right through

So much more than you can do
I'm counting on you


Now your mother's stately crown
Slips to show just what she's thinking
While your daddy's losing ground

Can't believer his ship is sinking

They pushed you on and on

Then asked just where did we go wrong

If you run now please don't look behind

Send them flowers explaining this is the way it was meant to be

Darling


It's your greatest shade of blue
Lose it before it bleeds right through

Trade it in for something new
I'm counting on you


It's your greatest shade of blue
Lose it before it bleeds right through
So much more than you can do

I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
