Neneh Cherry So Here I Come Lyrics

I can see this picture of myself in a green dress
I felt lost the first time I went to school
I was 4 foot 2, 6 feet scared and so distressed
This dress was green, I was the best dressed I'd ever been

First day at school, I said, "Teacher, teacher I know my A B C's
I want to read and write, I want to understand
Why the sky never ends and why the sky is blue
And not white? Right"

But when I spoke my heart broke
'Cause it was plain to see that school
Would never be the picture for my fantasy

And I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come
I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come

Slowly I came to discover
Time heals, time feels so young
When you're having fun
At 13 my kiss was sweet and not deep

Covered in blush, kiss and tell
My lips were deep red and shiny as hell
In my stairwell kisses and love discovered me
Undercover my fantasy

My first kiss, hit and miss
He wasn't impressed 'cause I wouldn't get undressed
Wrote my name on the wall, my hair was pressed
He had blue balls

If you wanna rock, you've got to roll it
If you gonna live, you've got to show it And if you're gonna do it, you got to do it, right
Don't you know it?

I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come
I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come, right

Sock it to me
Aren't we just having a lovely time?
Oh yeah

On the rooftops, I seen panties drop
And through the windows, behind the screens
In the red light after a fight, love was made
Love's saved

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 in Hell
Just to go straight to Heaven
I might have been lost but now I'm found
I got my two feet on the ground

I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come
I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come

I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come
I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come, right, right

I know where I'm going and where I'm coming from
So here I come, so here I come, so here I come

So here I come, got it
Enough already
So here I come
I came already, I came already, I came already
Stop it
