My once faultless hero
   Afraid of my shadow
   I don't know why
   I don't know why
  
   The hope of the hopeless
   A gun to the temple
   Don't make me cry
   Don't make me cry
  
   A little innocence always seems to go 'long
   the way
   A little innocence always seems to go 'long
   the way
  
   The best of the brave ones
   Cut down in the battle
   I've seen too much
   I've seen too much
  
   I've heard enough
   I've heard enough
  
   A little innocence always seems to go 'long
   the way
   A little innocence always seems to go 'long
   the way
   'Long the way
