Joan Armatrading - Innocent Request lyrics

I know the place where lovers go You wanna take me there I know Cos you believe in me And I believe in you But there's other things I don't want you to think That our love is going under Just need time for me And my thoughts to freely wander This troubled world And I worry for myself Where lies my destiny Every person feels their strength Now and then they doubt their worth Friendships bond Boys and girls Sisters, brothers Lovers, too But we need some air To find ourselves Find ourselves And there's no need for guilt It's an innocent request You get space to breathe And I get time to think When we're apart We appreciate our love I know it Life is more than fairy tales Sometimes sad Sometimes frail You owe it to yourselves To take a moment to reflect Don't think That our love is going under Just need time for me And my thoughts to freely wander This troubled world And I worry Where lies my destiny When we're apart We appreciate our love We know we've got the best We know it
