No measure of innocence
Where did she go wrong?
Black eyes then the bedroom
It won't happen again and she forgave him
Black eyes then the bedroom
The years had made her old
And she just gave in
Often wonders why she cries
When she is alone
But someday there will be
Love without bruises
But someday
No measure of innocence
Escape with a gun
Black eyes then the bedroom
Herself lost in cigarettes and daydreams
Black eyes then the bedroom
The years had not made her wise
Enough to leave him
Often wonders why she cries
When she is alone
But someday she will awake from
Her daydreams
But someday
