Tom Waits
Innocent When You Dream (78) [2023 Remaster]
[Verse 1]
The bats are in the belfry
The dew is on the moor
Where are the arms that held me
And pledged her love before?

[Refrain]
And pledged her love before

[Chorus]
It's such a sad old feeling
The hills are soft and green
It's memories that I'm stealing
But you're innocent when you dream

[Post-Chorus]
When you dream, you're innocent when you dream
When you dream, you'rе innocent when you dream

[Verse 2]
I madе a golden promise
That we would never part
I gave my love a locket
And then I broke her heart

[Refrain]
And then I broke her heart
[Chorus]
It's such a sad old feeling
The fields are soft and green
It's memories that I'm stealing
But you're innocent when you dream

[Post-Chorus]
When you dream, you're innocent when you dream
Innocent when you dream

[Verse 3]
Running through the graveyard
We laughed, my friends and I
We swore we'd be together
Until the day we died

[Refrain]
Until the day we died

[Chorus]
It's such a sad old feeling
The fields are soft and green
It's memories that I'm stealing
But you're innocent when you dream

[Post-Chorus]
When you dream, you're innocent when you dream
When you dream
