Story behind the song
Another observation of Life around me. You're never too old to be dissillusioned. Some people get it right out of the gate, some later on and remarkably, some never do. You gotta wonder why....
Lyrics
The neighborhood ladies all agreed the new baby Had a spirit unlike any other With a smile so bright that she lit up the night You couldn’t help but have a tear in your eye But as the years went by that sparkle in her eye Dimmed and finally died Nobody knew what she had to go through To keep those dirty little secrets inside Innocence lost, oh what a cost Of Innocence lost Jenny’s on a date, she’s gonna stay out late Cause all of that attention will feel good It’s only when they’re yearning for her love she feels deserving Of any kind of love and respect So she’ll swallow all their lies with a look in her eyes Of hope for a love so true But when the truth comes down there are cracks in the crown Of every prince she wants to take her away Chorus Now Millie’s grown older with stooped over shoulders and Most of her children have died The rest put her in a home cause she can’t be alone And said they’d visit every chance that they could But as the days grow long and she’s sitting alone And no one even bothers to call She doesn’t want to believe that she could be deceived By the ones she’d given all of her love
