Innocent Heart (2013/2023) – This started as an idea for my daughter to sing when she was starting high school. It took forever to finish, but she was gracious enough to still do it now that she’s more mature than I am.

Lyrics

Innocent Heart (featuring Paige Akers)
I try and catch my breath
from something beautiful and new
It scares me half to death
So is it worth it putting us through
Whatever happen now
If there’s a secret hidden here in the dark
We’ll know the end before we ever can start
If you break this innocent heart…
I lay awake at night
Staring at these empty walls
and pretend I can make it right
Painting heroes noble and tall
From every fairy tale
But what’s the point to all this priceless art
To make it perfect just to tear it apart?
If you break this innocent heart…
One that’s never been through what new love can do
That’s never been broken
One that has to believe in all this can be
That’s never been spoken to untrue

…just this once……untrue…
