Beautiful innocent girl

Beautiful, innocent girl

Verse
You’re an optimist a dreamer;
It’s a different world you see.
You see bright sunflowers
where I see fields of weeds.
Where I only see a downside
You find promises of hope.
I see the here and now
You use your telescope.
Chorus
Beautiful, beautiful, innocent girl
You’ve changed the way I look at the world.
I’m no longer quite as cynical
I’m not the pessimist that I was.
Beautiful, beautiful, innocent girl
You’ve shown me how it feels to find love.
Verse
You find happiness in giving
And in making others smile.
When the going gets tough
You go the extra mile.
I was darkness you were sunlight
You made winter turn to spring.
It’s funny how love’s changed
The way I look at things.
Chorus
Beautiful, beautiful, innocent girl
You’ve changed the way I look at the world.
I’m no longer quite as cynical
I’m not the pessimist that I was.
Beautiful, beautiful, innocent girl
You’ve shown me how it feels to find love.
Bridge
You chase dreams like they’re butterflies
And you’re a little girl.
And that’s rare and beautiful
in this pessimistic world.

    Excellent charming song. I liked it very much.

    This line stood out: You chase dreams like they’re butterflies

    Well done.

    Please keep posting

  • Thanks
  • This is lovely, really nice. Gentle, peaceful. Quite refreshing.

  • Charming is the right description. I can imagine a simple arrangement, maybe just a single vocal and acoustic guitar. These are nice lyrics. Acoustic guitar picking is not really my strength else I'd be tempted to give it a try, but there's a good song in the making here.

  • Thank you

    Excellent rendition, I'll let the musicians poke around on the sound side but for me

    you brought the words to life and I enjoyed it very much, nice vocals.

    Nuff Sid

    Hi Caroll, nice to meet you again on the forum .like previous times a text that touches me .about a meeting with someone who makes you think another perspective.sometimes you find pearls between the stones love tis one.do you have someone to make it into a song. please let me know

    greetings Fire rem
  • Good to hear from you. Rainy Day Man put this to song. I don’t mind different takes on the same lyrics but don’t know how he feels about it.
  • The chorus effect on the acoustic guitar is working for you in this song. I know this version is a simple arrangement for feedback on this forum. My thought, that shouldn't distract from your current arrangement and add to it would be add a simple beat behind what you already have at a low level. Thanks for sharing.

  • Very nice Carroll. I really appreciated the subject matter and the way you articulated it to tell the story. Very thoughtful. Well done.
    And good job RDM on bringing it to life.
    Great collaboration.
