Innocent Till Proven Guilty
Melissa Bell Lyrics
Lying awake till 3 in the morning
Hear the key turning in the door
Through the curtain a new day is dawning
And I swear I won't be taking no more
When I think of the long nights
And the time I spent watching the clock alone
What's the point about this fight
When I'm gonna end up all on my own
Innocent till proven guilty
That's according to the law
Innocent till proven guilty
But I'm still not taking any more
Not taking any more
So many times I heard those excuses
Ton of lies taking over the truth
Made up my mind to stop the abuses
'Cause you've surely been too long in the tooth
Don't you tell me you're sorry
Don't you tell me it was all just a mistake
All the years of my worry
Now the time has come to give you a break
Innocent till proven guilty
That's according to the law
Innocent till proven guilty
But I'm still not taking any more
Not taking any more
Not taking any more
Not taking any more
They say that every man deserves a chance
But all these years you left me on a dance
You lied too many times, that's a fact
Now I've finally gotten wise to your act
When I think of the long nights
And the time I spent watching the clock alone
What's the point about this fight
When I'm gonna end up all on my own
Innocent till proven guilty
That's according to the law
Innocent till proven guilty
But I'm still not taking any more
Not taking any more
Innocent till proven guilty
That's according to the law
Innocent till proven guilty
But I'm still not taking any more
Not taking any more
Hear the key turning in the door
Through the curtain a new day is dawning
And I swear I won't be taking no more
When I think of the long nights
And the time I spent watching the clock alone
What's the point about this fight
When I'm gonna end up all on my own
Innocent till proven guilty
Innocent till proven guilty
But I'm still not taking any more
Not taking any more
So many times I heard those excuses
Ton of lies taking over the truth
Made up my mind to stop the abuses
'Cause you've surely been too long in the tooth
Don't you tell me you're sorry
Don't you tell me it was all just a mistake
All the years of my worry
Now the time has come to give you a break
Innocent till proven guilty
That's according to the law
Innocent till proven guilty
But I'm still not taking any more
Not taking any more
Not taking any more
Not taking any more
They say that every man deserves a chance
But all these years you left me on a dance
You lied too many times, that's a fact
Now I've finally gotten wise to your act
When I think of the long nights
And the time I spent watching the clock alone
What's the point about this fight
When I'm gonna end up all on my own
Innocent till proven guilty
That's according to the law
Innocent till proven guilty
But I'm still not taking any more
Not taking any more
Innocent till proven guilty
That's according to the law
Innocent till proven guilty
But I'm still not taking any more
Not taking any more
