Lyrics

In your situation you had to push yourself ahead
But you were broken – breaking their hearts 

Oh you were so naïve
Too easy to deceive
Your heart was always on your sleeve
So naïve

No limitations – you gave your passion up for free
You were the only one to be so honest

But you were so naïve
Too easy to deceive
Your heart was always on your sleeve
So naïve

No regrets- how soon the world forgets the child of fame
And they claim they knew you
In the streets your broken shadow meets the wind of change 
And it's strange- it cuts through you- right through you

Cause you were so naïve
Too easy to deceive
Your heart was always on your sleeve
So naïve

They made a fool of you- as if the pain could set you free
When they were through with you- you were no wiser 

Yes you were so naïve
Too easy to deceive
Your heart was always on your sleeve
So naïve
So naïve
Too easy to deceive
Your heart was always on your sleeve
So naïve
