Bonnie Raitt - Crime Of Passion lyrics

rate me

My body is the only place<br />

Where we meet anymore<br />

Thought that I could handle the heartache<br />

Like I did before<br />

<br />

I remember your warning<br />

To never mention love<br />

A little crime of passion<br />

Is what I'm guilty of<br />

<br />

There were no witnesses<br />

Just the candlelight<br />

Glowin' as your sweetness awakened<br />

Every warm delight<br />

<br />

Show me some mercy<br />

What a fool I have become<br />

A little crime of passion<br />

That's what I'm sufferin' from<br />

<br />

Kisses ago it was so easy<br />

Dreams we shared together faded to forever<br />

And I just don't wear despair very well<br />

I can tell<br />

<br />

Now it's such a painful time<br />

And I'm too far gone<br />

Where are all the clever defenses<br />

I depended on?<br />

<br />

How could I be so crazy<br />

To believe all the things you say?<br />

A little crime of passion<br />

Is takin' my breath away<br />

<br />

Show me some mercy<br />

What a fool I've become<br />

A little crime of passion<br />

That's what I'm sufferin' from<br />

<br />

Baby, oh, just a little crime of passion<br />

What I'm sufferin' from<br />

What I'm sufferin' from<br />

What I'm sufferin' from<br />

Oh, just a little crime of passion<br />

Is what I'm sufferin' from
