The Innocent Age Lyrics by Dan Fogelberg

The Innocent Age Lyrics

    Capture the moment
    Carry the day
    Stay with the chase
    As long as you may
    Follow the dreamer,
    The fool, and the sage
    Back to the days of
    The innocent age.

    Storybook endings
    Never appear
    They're just someone's way of
    Leading us here
    Waiting for wisdom
    To open the cage
    We forged in the fires of
    The innocent age.

    Back at the start
    It was easy to see
    No one to own to
    Nowhere to be
    Deep in the heartlands
    A sad memory
    Calls to me.
    (calls to me)

    Fretful horizons
    Worrisome skies
    Tearful misgivings
    Burning your eyes
    Yearnings unanswered
    Reckon the wage you
    Pay to recapture the innocent age.

    Back at the start
    It was easy to see
    No one to own to
    Nowhere to be
    Deep in the heartlands
    A sad memory
    Calls to me.
    (calls to me)

    Fretful horizons
    Worrisome skies
    Tearful misgivings
    Burning your eyes
    Yearnings unanswered
    Reckon the wage you
    Pay to recapture the innocent age.
