innocent 'til proven guilty

please

let me testify

you accused me of another man

before you lock my love away

let me take the witness stand

i'm innocent

oh

i'm innocent

till proven guilty

before you lock my love away

please hear what i have to say

oh

i'm innocent

till proven guilty

darlin'

it's the law of the land

don't punish me until you understand

you're accusing me of being unfaithful

darlin'

i'm innocent of your charge

this case is based of a line testimony

of a jealous witness who wants your heart

can't you see that she wants you?

all my tears in vain

i swear on a stack of burdens

darlin'

i've been framed

i'm innocent

oh

i'm innocent

till proven guilty

before you lock my love away

please hear what i have to say

oh

i'm innocent

till proven guilty

darlin'

it's the law of the land

don't punish me until you understand

i never robbed the love that we shared

'cause in my heart there's too much care

and i never steal from the dreams that we've built

no other love would ever compare

but if you doubt my love

and the verdict is now withdrawn

i swear on the love you gave

i love you when you're gone

i'm innocent

oh-oh

oh

oh

oh

waiting for the verdict to come

tears streaming down my face

your tender kiss upon my lips

tells me that i've won my case

oh!

i'm so glad i'm innocent

till proven guilty

so glad i fought my case

all doubts have been erased

oh

i'm innocent

oh

darlin'

your faith in me

it saved me from misery
