Jason Mraz - Love for a Child lyrics

[Jason Mraz - Love for a Child lyrics]

There's a picture on my kitchen wall
Looks like Jesus and his friends involved
There's a party getting started in the yard
There's a couple getting steamy in the
Car parked in the drive
Was I too young to see this with my eyes?

By the pool last night, apparently
The chemicals weren't mixed properly
You hit your head and then forgot your name
And then you woke up at
The bottom by the drain
And now your altitude and memory's a shame

What about taking this empty cup
And filling it up
With a little bit more of innocence
I haven't had enough
It's probably because when you're young
It's okay to be easily ignored
I like to believe it was all
About love for a child

And when the house was left in shambles
Who was there to handle all
The broken bit's of glass
Was it mom who put my dad out on
His ass or the other way around
Well I'm far too old to care about that now

What about taking this empty cup
And filling it up
With a little bit more of innocence
I haven't had enough
It's probably because when you're young
It's okay to be easily ignored
I like to believe it was all
About love for a child

It's kinda nice to work the
Floor since the divorce
I've been enjoying both my Christmases
And my birthday cakes
And taking drugs and making love at
Far too young an age
And they never check to see my grades
What a fool I'd be to start complaining now

What about taking this empty cup
And filling it up
With a little bit more of innocence
I haven't had enough
It's probably because when you're young
It's okay to be easily ignored
I like to believe it was all
About love for a child

It was all about love
