If Loving You Is a Crime (I'll Always Be Guilty) Songtext
von Lee Moses

If loving you is a crime, then give me time
′Cause I always be guilty
Sometimes, I feel that I'm on trial
For loving you too much, child

You′re the judge and the jury of my peers
If it's time for me to talk, Lord, listen here
If you don't want me to steal your heart
Lock me up and keep us both apart

And if they let me go, I know it
I will do the same thing over again

So if loving you′s a crime, then give me time
′Cause I'll always be guilty
Lord, have mercy


I stand before you, a condemned man
Because I had a deliberate plan
To steal your heart, oh, your love away
But I got caught, what can I say?

I′m guilty, so guilty
Whoo, Lord, guilty
But I know now
If they let me go, I know it
I will do the same thing over again

So, if loving you is a crime, then give me time
'Cause I′ll always be guilty
So guilty, so guilty
So guilty

I'm sitting in a witness stand
I got to plead guilty
If it′s a crime in this world for loving a woman
Somebody let me know
I'll serve the rest of my life
Pleading love, love
