Текст (слова) песни «Criminal»

I've been a bad, bad girl
I've been careless with a delicate man
And it's a sad, sad world
When a girl will break a boy just because she can
Don't you tell me to deny it
I've done wrong and I want to suffer for my sins
I've come to you cuz I need guidence to be true
And I just don't know where I can begin

Chorus:
What I need is a good defense
Cuz I'm feeling like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever know of love

Heaven help me for the way I am
Save me from these evil deeds
Before I get tham done
I know tomorrow brings the consequence
At hand
But I keep livin' this day like the next will never come


Oh, help me but don't tell me to deny it
I've got to cleanse myself of all these lies 'till I'm good enough for him
I've got a lot to lose and I'm betting high
So I'm beggin' you before it ends
Just tell me where to begin

chorus

Let me know the way
Before there is hell to pay
Give me room to lay the law and let me go
I've got to make a play
To make my lover stay
So what would an angel say
The devil wants to know

Chorus: (x2)

Because he's all I ever
knew of love
