Nakhane

All Along

Nakhane


I’ve been hammering at the same wall
Without a hand to help me break my fall
A dog that chases what it had all along
And never knows when it has done wrong

I’ve had you here all along
I need you all day long

I woke up in bed and said
I want my innocence back
I want my baby back
I woke up in bed and said
I want my baby back

I had been stammering all night long
I sang my prayers to an unknown God
I danced on tables my shouts were so strong
I drank till it hurt
Smashed some bottles
Sang along

Hmmm, no one to tell me I’d done wrong
Oooh, look away
You’re not that strong

I woke up in bed and said
I want my innocence back
I want my baby back
I woke up in bed and said
I want my baby back

I want some innocence back
I want my baby back
I need some innocence back
