Heart of Innocence

Jessica Simpson

Sometimes I wake up in the dark night
And in my mind there’s a picture of you
I know someday this dream will come alive
So for now your shadow will do
I’ve never seen your face but I know you’re in my heart
Baby some day, some place, I’ll hold you in my arms

I have a gift for you, something I’ve held on to
Waiting for your sweet caress
No ribbon has been untied from all that I hold inside
And only you will possess this heart of innocence, oh yeah

I lay my head down on a pillow of white
Here in the dark, I am cradled in peace
No loss from yesterday to harm me at night
No tears to dry, no sad memories
There’s a heart to hold and I will safely keep
The strength that’s in my soul until you come to me

I have a gift for you, something I’ve held on to
Waiting for your sweet caress, oh
No ribbon has been untied from all that I hold inside
And only you will possess this heart of innocence

Every night I make a wish before I fall asleep
That destiny will take your hand and lead it to me, oh

I have a gift for you, something I’ve held on to
Oh, you know I’ll be waiting here for you
No ribbon has been untied from all that I hold
And only you will possess this heart of innocence

Oh, oh, I love you
