作曲：Jackson Browne

It's such a clever innocence with which you do your sorcery

As if somehow the years just bow and let that young boy go free

I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled

I thought I knew where I was going until I heard your laughter flowing

And came upon the wisdom in your eyes

Surprise

I've spent my whole life running 'round

Chasing songs from town to town

Thinking I'd be free but just I never let love slow me down

So lonely and so wild until you turned and smiled

By now I should have long been gone

But here I am holding on

As if I didn't know which way to run

It's such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me

As if you know how it feels to never be who you wanted to be

I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled

I thought that I was free but I'm just one more prisoner of time

Alone within the boundaries of my mind

I thought I was a child
