Jessica Simpson - Heart Of Innocence lyrics

[Written by Paula Carpenter*, Jessica Simpson, Frank Myers, Gary Baker] [Zomba Enterprises Inc./Swear by It Music/BMG Songs/Above The Rim (ASCAP)] Sometimes I wake up in the dark of 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 your in my heart Maybe someday some place I'll hold you in my arms [CHORUS] I have a gift for you Something that 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 I lay my head down on a pillow of white Your in the dark I am cradled in peace No thoughts from yesterday to haunt me at night No tears to dry, no sad memories It isn't hard to hold And now I'll safely keep The strength that's in my soul Until you come to me [CHORUS] Every night I make a wish before I fall asleep That destiny will take your hand And lead you to me [CHORUS] [spoken] I love you [* Paula Carpenter, ASCAP and NSAI Songwriter, Jessica's co-writer on the lyric "HEART OF INNOCENCE," and President of STARBRIGHT MUSIC & CREATIVE GROUP, offers unique songwriting seminars at great destinations, as well as at YOUR event!
