Sweet Purity

Sweet Purity

Music And Lyrics
By
Peter Link

My childhood dreams are faded
And life is not at all
As I thought it would be
For everywhere I look the world is jaded
And time moves on
While I’m madly turning corners
Searching for the child in me

Sweet purity
Deep within the memory of me
I long for my sweet purity
Deep within me

Rollin’ on an’ on
An’ on an’ on in me

My shallow hopes have ended
And I am not at all as I thought I would be
In time the shattered images are mended
And life goes on
While I’m slowly learning lessons
Looking for the child in me

Sweet purity
Deep within the memory of me
I long for my sweet purity
Deep within me

And there
Behind the staggered steps of time
And there
Behind the shambles of a lifetime
I am seeking out the traces of a child
I’m searching for my
Sweet purity
Deep within the memory of me
I long for my sweet purity
Deep within me

Rollin’ on an’ on
An’ on an’ on in me
I’m searching for my
Sweet purity
Rollin’ on an’ on in me
I’ve been looking all over this world
But I think i’ll find it
Deep down within the very soul of me
