Girl, I stand accused, people say I love you
|
Yeah, I stand accused, oh, but what can I do
|
You belong to some other guy
|
Hope I never have to testify
|
If loving you is a big crime
|
I've been guilty a long time
|
Girl, I stand accused with no more than a chance
|
Girl, I stand accused and I got no defense
|
All I need is a touch from your hand
|
To find myself on a witness stand
|
I'd be unable to lie, girl
|
I got a love that won't die, girl
|
|
Tell the world that I was guilty
|
I wouldn't stand a chance
|
Tell the world that I was a victim
|
A victim of circumstance
|
|
They might show some mercy if I could explain
|
Girl, I love you so much that I'm almost insane
|
You disturbed my balance of mind
|
I couldn't help what I did at the time
|
I stand accused and I'm guilty
|
Maybe I always will be
|
I need a witness, baby
|
|
You disturbed my balance of mind
|
I couldn't help what I did at the time
|
I stand accused and I'm guilty
|
Maybe I always will
|
I need a witness, baby
|
|
I stand accused of loving you
|
So guilty baby
|
Oh yeah
|
I stand accused
|
|
I S-T-A-N-D A-C-C-U-S-E-D
|
I stand accused, loving you
|
So guilty, baby
|
Oh yeah
|
