Hazy lights of a dusty city A traveler, driven by his dreams Swaying, like a summer mirage Journeys through the dune of time Is it a theory, ideal, or just one man's need? What it takes to make us rise Mr. Innocence, goodbye My sweet green youthful days I pray that you forget me I'm already gone In those times, I had loved only to fulfill myself Was even proud to sin and now for what's done Must we bear the blame The sky at night in a child's eye And the night sky that we see How did we end up this way? Can't ever see the world as it was Is it a passion, teardrop, or a shooting star That the rain in due time hides? Mr. Innocence, goodbye My sweet green youthful days I pray that you forget me I'm already gone In those days that I was lost Do believe me when I say It was you and only you You're the one I had always loved In the beauty of a sunset-to-be Naturally I saw my youth, my faults, My goals, my crimes I never knew it was merely a fruit Overripe, and past its time Is it a theory, ideal, or just one man's need That burnt down the child's dreams? Mr. Innocence, goodbye My sweet green youthful days I pray that you forget me I'm already gone In those days that I was lost Do believe me when I say It was you and only you You're the one I had always loved
