Turn toward the innocence living inside,
The one who you’ve learned to shelter and hide,
The one who still trusts and knows how to play,
The one who still needs hugs, to make it through the day,
The one who finds wonder in nature’s tiny gifts,
The one who still relies on that sweet good night kiss,
The one that is able to laugh, cry and love,
A heart created perfect by our Father above,

The beauty of innocence does not change with age,
More then a memory its life never fades,
Recalled, its perfection will never grow old,
It’s a jewel in your crown, a part of your soul,

Ingrained within the sands of time,
The castles you’ve built, the hills you’ve climbed,
Impressions of your youth are still there to this day,
The beauty of innocence, even tides can't wash away
