Artist/Band: Des'ree
Lyrics for Song: Innocent & Naive
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Des'ree



They were young, children of the golden sun
Oh , the love they knew, bore no heavy chains
She was coy, played games with her little boy
On his heart she signed her name

Innocent and naive,
tenderness would see them through,
yeah

Now he's a man she's no longer a little girl
Passion and desire came to play
Sister knew, mother didn't have a clue
From each other, they couldn't stay away

Innocent and naive,
tenderness would see them through,
yeah

Now they're old, the fire they know will never burn cold,
Their love burns alive
She's still sweet, he still kisses her tender feet
They know their love will survive

Innocent and naive,
tenderness will see them through


Innocent & Naive

Des'ree's 'Innocent & Naive' stands as a defining track from her 1990 debut album, 'I Ain't Movin''. Released during the height of the Britpop era, the song blends soulful vocals with a driving, danceable rhythm that became a staple of the genre. The recording captures Des'ree's signature ability to merge R&B sensibilities with rock energy, creating a sound that resonated deeply with audiences across the UK and beyond. As a key release on her first major studio project, the track helped establish her reputation as a versatile artist capable of delivering both intimate ballads and upbeat anthems. Its enduring popularity reflects the timeless quality of its composition and Des'ree's powerful vocal delivery, cementing its place in her discography and the broader landscape of 1990s pop music.
