Dermot Kennedy - Innocence and Sadness lyrics
Artist: Dermot Kennedy
album: Sonder (2023)
Never felt alone 'til the late night
Never knew she was my home 'til the tears dried
Working on the karma, but it takes time
Innocence and sadness was a fine line
Better savour every moment as it flies by
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Maybe someday you'll be happy for me, oh, I
Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy
The reason I stay, well, I need you today
Baby, I would bleed in your name
I'm trying to be who you need me to be
I would have waited for you all night to talk for a minute
I'll sing into the cold dark night 'til you listen
People spend their life heads down, souls hidden
I'm trying to be who you need me to be, well
♪
Never felt alone 'til the late night
Never knew she was my home 'til the king cried
Lost inside the forest, but it feels fine
Innocence and sadness in the same night
All the love that just got stolen from your wide eyes
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Let your tears erode my shoulder like a cliff side
Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm, joy
The reason I stay, well, I need you today
Baby, I would bleed in your name
I'm trying to be who you need me to be
I would have waited for you all night to talk for a minute
I'll sing into the cold dark night, you listen
Some people spend their life heads down, souls hidden
I'm trying to be who you need me to be
♪
I'd do anything for smiles, I'd move heaven and earth
Nobody told me at the start how heaven can hurt
I'll be waiting under streetlight at Bowery and third
Know I was waiting on ya, know I was waiting on ya
Darling, don't spend another second wondering what you're worth
Don't you ever get affected by the ways of this world
Wouldn't say my soul's protected, but there's something at work
I was waiting on ya, know I was waiting on ya
Better savour every moment as it flies by
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time
Every minute, boy, steady rhythm, joy
Better savour every moment as it flies by
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time
Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm, joy
Never knew she was my home 'til the tears dried
Working on the karma, but it takes time
Innocence and sadness was a fine line
Better savour every moment as it flies by
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Maybe someday you'll be happy for me, oh, I
Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy
The reason I stay, well, I need you today
Baby, I would bleed in your name
I'm trying to be who you need me to be
I would have waited for you all night to talk for a minute
I'll sing into the cold dark night 'til you listen
People spend their life heads down, souls hidden
I'm trying to be who you need me to be, well
