Jason Mraz- Love For a Child

There's a picture on my kitchen wall 
Looks like Jesus and His friends involved 
There's a party getting started in the yard  
And there's a couple getting steamy in the car, parked in the drive  
Was I too young to see this with my eyes?
 
And by the pool that night, apparently  

The chemicals weren't mixed properly  
You hit your head and then forgot your name  
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'd like to believe it was all about love for a child +
 
When the house was left in shambles  

Who was there to handle all the broken bits 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'd 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 checked 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'd love to believe it was all about love for a child 
It was all about love
