|
Why do you punish me for loving you,
|
You¡¯re counting my mistakes, how about yours?
|
Why do you sentence me to nights of tears?
|
Convicting all these dreams I¡¯ve dreamed for years?
|
|
My heart cries out behind these prison bars,
|
It pleads to you for your true love to set it free.
|
Why do you punish me? Is love a crime?
|
If so I¡¯ll spend a lifetime loving, serving time.
