Analysis of Through the Innocent Eyes
What's that I see
It's bigger than you and me
It looks like dog
Wait, that cloud looks like a frog
Reach up and touch it if you can
The sand beneath is so tan
The sea crashes on the beach
Sailboats out of reach
Birds ride the wind
As I watch the sun bend
It's face falls behind the ocean
Under Sandman's sweet potion
