Michael Martin Murphey Lyrics
"Innocent Hearts"

Oh, innocent hearts
Hearts unstained by the tears and the sorrow
Hearts not chained to the fear of tomorrow
Can't something be done
Couldn't someone
Save these innocent hearts.

Oh, innocent hearts
Hearts that beat with a simple desire
Hearts too sweet to be cast in the fire
Can't we protect
Can't we respect
These innocent hearts

Hold me close, hold me tight
'Til the shadows of the night pass us by
Hold me close, hold me tight
In the hope we won't let love die

Oh, innocent hearts
Hearts that feel for a love, a love undemanding
Hearts so real we can't understand them
There must be a way
They could be saved
These innocent hearts
Can't something be done
Couldn't someone
Save these innocent hearts.
