you did the crime

you lied and you cheated

girl

there's no excuse

that's criminal behavior

but you still only lose

you did the crime

but i'm the one doin' the time

spend the rest of my life

without you in these arms of mine

guilt in your heart

gult in your soul

but the joys of love

give me life without parole

you did the crime

but i'm the one doin' the time

spend the rest of my life

without you in these arms of mine

cold-hearted lover

in the first degree

you got away with murder

and i'll never be free

you did the crime

but i'm the one doin' the time

spend the rest of my life

without you in these arms of mine

that's a hard pill to swallow
