A hopeful heart – handing out illusions – br Worn atop a satin sleeve; br Naivety was dripping out delusions – br 'Twas an open gash – to so deceive br A little further, such a pretty mind. br br Her whitened innocence, rare today; br And lest we ruin another soul, br Leave and let it be – we'll pray the trust br Will emanate a loving whole br For our appreciation; hear the plea.
