Love for a Child (From the Casa Nova Sessions)

[00:06.79] There's a picture on my kitchen wall
[00:10.10] Looks like Jesus with his friends involved
[00:13.51] And there's a party getting started in the yard
[00:20.63] There's a couple getting steamy in the car
[00:24.83] Parked in the drive
[00:27.80] Was I too young to see this with my eyes?
[00:34.79] And by the pool that night, apparently
[00:38.26] The chemicals weren't mixed properly
[00:41.77] You hit your head and then forgot your name
[00:48.64] And you woke up at the bottom, by the drain
[00:55.42] And now your altitude and memory's a shame
[01:03.77] What about taking this
[01:05.72] Empty cup and filling it up
[01:09.53] With a little bit more of some innocence
[01:12.95] I haven't had enough
[01:15.14] It's probably because
[01:16.72] When you're young
[01:17.86] It's okay to be easily ignored
[01:24.58] I'd like to believe it
[01:27.03] Was all about
[01:29.06] Love for a child
[01:35.65] And when the house was left in shambles
[01:40.19] Well, who was there to handle
[01:42.33] All the broken bits of glass?
[01:48.07] Was it Mom who put my dad out on his ass
[01:52.78] Or the other way around?
[01:55.36] Well, I'm far too old to care about that now
[02:03.27] What about taking this
[02:05.80] Empty cup and filling it up
[02:09.18] With a little bit more of some innocence
[02:12.74] I haven't had enough
[02:14.41] It's probably because
[02:15.98] When you're young
[02:17.35] It's okay to be easily ignored
[02:23.72] I'd like to believe it
[02:26.41] Was all about
[02:28.46] Love for a child
[02:34.41] It's kinda nice to work the floor
[02:37.58] Since the divorce
[02:39.11] I've been enjoying
[02:41.26] Both my Christmases and my birthday cakes
[02:47.28] And taking drugs and making love
[02:50.70] At far too young an age
[02:54.08] And they never check to see my grades
[02:57.40] What a fool I'd be
[02:58.33] To start complaining now
[03:05.12] What about taking this
[03:08.41] Empty cup and filling it up
[03:11.78] With a little bit more of some innocence
[03:15.40] I haven't had enough
[03:16.76] It's probably because
[03:18.35] When you're young
[03:19.95] It's okay to be easily ignored
[03:28.35] I'd love to believe it
[03:30.98] Was all about
[03:33.12] Love for a child
[03:37.13] It was all about love
[03:49.83]
