sighing innocents

Singer:tanita tikaram

give me a stand

a standing ovation

baby

give me a road

which i can tail

you don't know nothing

baby

so don't pretend

or you might pay cost

it's costing me nothing

baby

i might feel some shame

but i don't care

and if you won't mind

just moving the fireside

baby

i'd rather be cold

than lying over there

no

this ain't sighing innocents

this ain't sighing innocents

no this ain't sighing innocents

i'm just trying to follow you

and if you walk

i might just tag along

it only be shop talk

some

well that's something to do

or i might take a walk down

by the river

baby

but no i won't

no i won't be waiting for you

no

this ain't sighing innocents

this ain't sighing innocents

no this ain't sighing innocents

i'm just trying to follow you

sorry but sense

that

that no one will miss you

if you die

they might send a wreath

they might send a reason

they might send a reason

but us

we know

join in the sus

it's always the same man

he's taking a stroll

and then they tie him to his ghost

i know it's sad

but you never listen

no

you never listen

you just drive home
