[breeeegs]

This is a beautiful song, but it makes me sad. I used to be that little kid lying in bed with his stuffed bunny, safe and sound on an ocean of dreams. Now I'm an adult and I feel cold and afraid. What happened to me, where did I go wrong

[petehernandez100]

@breeeegs When life strips us of our innocence, it is a cold realization that we can never go back to that small world of our childhood. We must instead embrace the vastness of our big beautiful world and our part in the ocean of humanity that we are all a part of. You need never be afraid, for every person you see is your brother and sister, you are never alone. The world is big, but you are never alone.

[breeeegs]

Thank you for your kind words

Mercer wrote the lyrics and Mancini wrote the music according to my sources. Truly beautiful! Thanks for posting!

[suher21]

Magnificent...I just LOVE THE INNOCENCE MISSION...!

[CezarCimpeanu1]

great interpretation of this song :), very beautiful

[jamieh1974]

Oh how funny - I downloaded this years ago and it said it was by emiliana torrini (apparently other people thought it was by milla jovovitch) both wrong!!!

[BlueScreenLife]

It's one of those really popular covers where no one really remembers who did it in the first place. That said, Innocence Mission's version is very lovely.

[silkywater]

such a lovely song! this was the first version i heard, and it is wonderful!

[tincanonastring]

wow

this is so peaceful

[gafrance]

favorite song hi ye hehehe

[1000namesofshiva]

this one goes to the one i love

[RadioFreeSpike]

Magnificent...One of those cover versions that leaves the original in the dust, although I'd like to thank Pennsylvania native Henry Mancini for writing it. (He must have been inspired by all those shows at the Stanley Theatre in Pittsburgh...)

[EWatsonLover]

Sorry, but how can you in all honesty say that this song beats Audrey Hepburn's version? I agree that it's a lovely cover, but in this case nothing can beat the original. That's what I think, anyway.

[RadioFreeSpike]

EWatsonLover, Thank you for enlightening me; I stand partially corrected!

I based the comparison on the soundtrack cut with the chorus, done in that dated early sixties style. Today I saw Audrey's rendition which is quite lovely. I still have to give the edge to Karen, but both are class acts.

The disparity between the two version is not so wide as between IM and the schmaltzy chorus version.

[EWatsonLover]

Yeah, they're both amazing singers. I think i just like Audrey's version better because of her whole character.

[derfunkhaus]

Is it really a competition in the first place?

[nantayyy716]

so beautiful it's chilling

[000sundancer000]
