“You Don’t Know”

Well, it was cold the day that I met you- and you don’t know what you’re missing, oh yeah
We were dancing in a little story- well I am looking back
Well, you’d smile the room a different color- you were there for the pinching, oh yeah
We set out on our little journey- well I am leaving that

I say innocence is golden now,
But your little flowers bloom
And you don’t know what you’re missing, oh yeah
No, you don’t know what you’re missing

Well, I could wrap it up in a virtue and throw it down to your basket, oh yeah
But you might fill it up just a little too much and it might start to crack
You’ve been soaking up all the pieces that I might like to laugh at, oh yeah
And I’ve been soaking up a little sun and giving it right back

I say innocence is golden now with your little flowers blooming
In the sun is where I’m sitting and through my window I will move
And you don’t know what you’re missing

Because we’re racing- our heart’s gone by
You can hold my hand for a while this time
And facing the shadow’s eyes
I can feel her eyes tonight
You let me go because you will falter
And I’ll be racing back, yeah, yeah

Well it feels the same this evening- an unintentional magic, oh yeah
When I hear the clock go tick-tock, tick-tock, man I like the way that sounds

And I say innocence is golden now with your little flowers blooming
In the sun is where I’m sitting and through my window I will move
And you don’t know what you’re missing
No, no, you don’t know what you’re missing- yeah…hey, yeah
