Album:

Nine Lives

My body is the only place
Where we meet anymore
Thought that I could handle the heartache
Like I did before


I remember your warning
To never mention love
A little crime of passion
Is what I'm guilty of


There were no witnesses
Just the candlelight
Glowin' as your softness awakened
Every warm delight


Show me some mercy
What a fool I have become
A little crime of passion
That's what I'm sufferin' from


Kisses ago it was so easy
Dreams we shared together faded to forever
And I just don't wear despair very well
I can tell


Now is such a painful time
And I'm too far gone
Where are all the clever defenses 
I depended on?


How could I be so crazy
To believe the things you say?
A little crime of passion
Is takin' my breath away


[Instrumental break]


Show me some mercy
What a fool I have become
A little crime of passion
That's what I'm sufferin' from


Baby, oh, just a little crime of passion
Is what I'm sufferin' from
Is what I'm sufferin' from
What I'm sufferin' from
Ahhh, just a little crime of passion
Is what I'm sufferin' from
