My Crime of Passion — текст песни (mike and the mechanics)

Words of warning took me by surprise

From a voice I hardly recognised

Well my heart was beating faster

And my blood ran hot and cold

I was heading for disaster

When suddenly I realised that I had lost control



Loaded questions played upon my mind

Allegations I could not deny

Well my mind was in confusion

Had my back against the wall

Id been led into collusion

Before I realised I was a victim of it all





Chorus:



Heres to my crime of passion

I cant forget the look upon your face

And to your tender mercies

Goodbye to all the innocence we never can replace



All of sunday sittin by the telephone

Not a whisper, well I should have known

But it seems that Id insisted

cause in spite of all you said

I believe my words were twisted

As line by line the promises were spinning round my head





(chorus)



Waves of anger slowly do recede

To faded memories that Ill never need

But my mind keeps on returning to the way it used to be

Theres a flame forever burning

Theres nothing I can say to you will ever make you see



Heres to my crime of passion

I just cant seem to shake it off my mind

As for your tender mercy

Ill never stop regretting that I left it all behind
