I Stand Accused '88

(album: Love Attack - 1988)

I stand accused
Of loving you too much
And I hope, I hope it's not a crime
'Cause if it is, I'm guilty
Of loving you, you, you

I, I hope to God that
I never have, oh, I hope I never have to testify
'Cause if I do, every
Everyone is gonna, they're gonna cry
They're gonna say
Oh like he's guilty
Of loving a sweet girl like you

I know, I know you belong to another
And I, I may not stand, I may not stand a ghost of a chance
But I'll stand on top of Mount Everest
And proudly tell the world that I love you
Oh yes, I will
You see I, I just can't help myself
I'm a victim of circumstance

And just one
Ooh, just one touch of your hand
I don't know, I don't know how it happened
But just look at me
I find myself chilling on the witness stand
And I'm shouting out
All over the land
Everybody (guilty), everybody, I'm guilty (of loving you)
Of loving a sweet girl like you

Don't you know that I'm (guilty), I'm guilty
(I think I believe you)
Of loving you (I stand accused)
(I know I believe you)
I said I'm guilty (guilty)
(I know I believe you)
I don't know what to do (I stand accused)
Everyday I wanna hold you (guilty)
(Do you really wanna hold me?)
I wanna squeeze you tight (I stand accused)
(I don't believe you wanna squeeze me, no no)
Even though they talked about me, yes they are (guilty)
(Does it really matter?)
They said you belong to another and it just ain't right (I stand accused)
But I didn't ask to fall in love with you (guilty)
(Am I irresistible baby?)
[?] myself (I stand accused)
I'm so frustrated (guilty), yes I am
'Cause all I see [?] is you and nobody else (I stand accused)
(Do you really mean it baby?)
I'm guilty (guilty) of loving you (I stand accused)
Oh yeah (guilty), I'm guilty
(I just might be guilty too)
[?] tell me what to do (I stand accused)
(I think you know) (guilty)
[?] tell me what to do
(I think you know, baby)
And I'm not ashamed to say that
I love you, I love you, I love you (love, love you)
(Do you really? Do you really?)
I just can't help but loving you (love, love you)
You know it's a one-side love affair) (guilty)
(Really doesn't have to be that way, baby) (I stand accused)
I know it seems a succesful [?]
I know you belong to another (love)
(Do you love me?)
I just can't help but loving you (love)
(I wanna believe you, I wanna believe you) (guilty)
You see he don't love you like I do
(Show me) (I stand accused)
I know he don't need you like I do
(Oh you gotta show me)
Baby, oh baby, oh baby (love)
Please, can't you understand? (love)
The situation that I'm in... (guilty)
