Crime of Passion by John Wetton Lyrics

And you must stand and face the tale to tell
Who would think that you would take the life of one you loved so well?
And no-one else could see your point of view
To one and one has always been the answer two, or so I'm told

And how does it feel knowing you're guilty?
How does it feel to be all on your own, on your own?

With a crime of passion
A game of love and hate, but it's too late
There's no compassion
It's just a tug of war that's lost before it's begun
It's never won, it's a crime, it's a crime

And so you have to face the world alone
The life you took and tore apart without a care of your own
And so he gazes in your eyes so cold
The love you shared, when you were young could never heal the pain you hold

So how does it feel knowing you're guilty?
How does it feel to be all on your own, on your own?
With a crime of passion
A game of love and hate, but it's too late
There's no compassion
It's just a tug of war that's lost before it's begun
It's never won

With something you held so dear
How could you throw it away?
Your fatal emotions win the day

With a crime of passion
A game of love and hate, but it's too late
There's no compassion
It's just a tug of war that's lost before it's begun
It's never won, it's a crime, it's a crime of passion

And how does it feel?
How does it feel?
