[Verse 1: LeAnn Rimes]
Come back to me, we'll set Eden free
Joy will again win the wholly war
You've wandered so far from who you truly are
And it's time to stop getting drunk off the river of forgetfulness
[Chorus: LeAnn Rimes]
I want you to be
Forever innocent
I hope you know love
Oh, and nothing less
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, innocent
[Verse 2: LeAnn Rimes]
They convinced you she's gone with torturous tongues
Then shamed her away behind holy doors
And I know it seems she's only a dream
But it's not naive to believe that one day she'll return to you
No, she never left you
[Chorus: LeAnn Rimes & Orchid Quartet]
I want you to be (Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
Forever innocent
I hope you know love (Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
Oh, and nothing less
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
Oh, innocent
[Bridge]
This is not just a secret I put in your ear
Not a nicety told to coddle the fear
It's a thread of your worth
That will lead to your whole freaking universe
[Chorus: Orchid Quartet, both, LeAnn Rimes]
I want you to be
Forever innocent
I hope you know love (Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
Oh, and nothing less
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
Oh, innocent
I want you to be (Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
Oh, innocent (Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya)
Oh, and nothing less
[Outro: LeAnn Rimes]
Come back to me, we'll set Eden free
Joy will again win the wholly war
