Amanda McBroom - Crimes of the Heart lyrics

We were drinking whiskey, we were talking men She'd never see the sunny side of forty-two again She was in love with a boy of twenty-nine This was something new, what could she do What should she do? She made her burn like fire, made her drunk like wine No one else had loved her oh, for such a long, long time She was afraid it was moving way too fast, the die was cast How could this last? It was a crime of the heart We all know that love's insane form the start Where there's pa**ion, there is pain What do we gain, committing crimes of the heart He was crazy jealous of everyone she met Suspicious of the little things that hadn't happened yet He devoured every minute of her time, she didn't mind After all, young love's always blind It was a crime of the heart We all know that love's insane form the start Where there's pa**ion, there is pain What do we gain, committing crimes of the heart Funny how tomorrows turn into yesterdays Funny how a mirror never lies Somehow the hands of time turn back the other way Every time I look into his eyes The night was half-past over, time for going home She said she'd rather walk, she needed time to be alone When you're living your love from day to day Somtimes tomorrow Is the price you have to pay For these crimes of the heart We all know that love's insane form the start Where there's pa**ion, there is pain And love is what we gain, committing crimes of the heart
