Crime Of Passion

(album: Eaten Alive - 1985)

I must be crazy they don't know what we've done
You are my lover
Even though I know it's wrong
I hear them talking
But whatever they do
I need to love you
And if I love you couldn't we make it

Got someone loving me
He won't say goodbye
He's been so good to me
I don't wanna make him cry
I need you both to love me
It's up to you
You can help me
You're the reason I can't decide

Breaking my bones and shaking my nerves
Till I just can't see tomorrow
Looking at him and looking at you
And I don't know who to follow
I'll never win in the state I'm in

It's a crime of passion, I'm bad to love you
Whenever I'm with you, I lose control
It's a crime of passion for me and for you
Whatever I give you
It's just too late to save my soul
I need to love you
My desperation is the power to go on
Each night I prayed for love
I'm at the mercy of
And if you don't hear me now
Then I'll be the only one
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be the only one

I saw him yesterday
The questions he asked
I think he knows about us
Did we move too fast
How can we hide it
When we know it's a lie
Keep our love under the covers
The pressure is too high

Why do I get myself tied up
Why tangle with love you borrow
I should have been known as a one man woman
Should have been one love but oh no
Never be a cure for the human law

It's a crime of passion, I'm bad to love you
Whenever I'm with you, I lose control
It's a crime of passion for me and for you
Whatever I give you
It's just too late to save my soul
I need to love you
My desperation is the power to go on
Each night I prayed for love
I'm at the mercy of
And if you don't hear me now
Then I'll be the only one
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be the only one
