The Innocence Mission

The Innocence Mission (stylized as the innocence mission on all releases since 1995) is an American alternative rock band centered on husband-and-wife singer-songwriters Karen and Don Peris. The original group, including Mike Bitts (bass guitar) and Steve Brown (drums), was formed in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in the early 1980s when the members met during a Catholic school production of Godspell. Although all members of the band have contributed musically, Karen Peris is its principal writer. more »

This dress that I made out of the curtains
Was on the line, dancing around
Better than I can.
Now we walk up to the top of the street.

Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat
Down the street.
And we'll be there before we know.

There go the lawn chairs.
Some frogs are racing them,
To catch up with me.
Gray buildings go by,
Violety sky lit up with trees in yellow.

Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat
Down the street.
And we'll be there before we know.

Hey, is that you, going by, swimming by?
Hey, is that you, zig-zagging, whizzing by?
Sailing up, sailing by?

Once letting go, rain sails us in a leafy boat,
Down the street.
And we'll be there before we know.
