Tanita Tikaram - Sighing Innocents lyrics

Give me a stand

A standing ovation, baby

Give me a road

Which I can tail

I don't know nothing

If I choose sadness, baby

So don't pretend

Or you might pay

Cost

It's costing us nothing, baby

I might feel some shame

But when 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

Well, this ain't sighing innocents

No this ain't sighing innocents

I'm 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

Well, this ain't sighing innocents

No, this ain't sighing innocents

I'm trying to follow you

Sorry but sense

That no one will miss you

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

No, this ain't sighing innocents

Well, this ain't sighing innocents

No, this ain't sighing innocents

I'm just trying to follow you

Join in us, 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

No, this ain't sighing innocents

Well, this ain't sighing innocents

No, this ain't sighing innocents

I'm just trying to follow you
