This is the story of 2 childhood sweethearts
Inseparable 'til one broke the other one's heart
She wants 2 leave him, but I would die first
Baby, don't leave me
I didn't mean 2 hurt U
By heaven, I swear
I am a witness 4 the prosecution of a hate in this love affair
I who am guilty of nothing but always wantin' 2 be there
Mama, I swear I love U, I always have
In school I once traded chairs
If I couldn't feel U, if I couldn't be near U
I wanted what was yours
Now I just want U 2 care
I am a witness (Witness 4 the prosecution {x2})
I am a witness (Witness 4 the prosecution {x2})
I'm a witness 4 the prosecution of a hate in this love affair, yes I hurt U
I didn't mean 2 hurt U baby, oh Lord, I wouldn't even dare.. dare!
I am a witness, witness
(Witness 4 the prosecutionon) {x4}
Gimme 20 years, gimme the electric chair
But nothing's gonna stop me..
Nothing's gonna stop me from killing the hate in this love affair
(Witness 4 the prosecution)
I love U, I love U and I do care
I am a witness 4 the prosecution
4 the prosecution of a hate in this love affair, I swear.. I swear
Gimme death row, gimme solitaire
But don't U leave me baby, leave me baby
I swear I love U, huh, I always have
In school I once traded chairs
If I couldn't be near U, if I couldn't feel U
Huh, I wanted what was yours
Now I just want U 2 care (Witness 4 the prosecution {x3})
Tell me baby, tell me do U care?
I swear, I will go 2 the electric chair!
Nothing's gonna stop me from burnin' the hate in this love affair
Love affair!
They can give me 21 years
No, make that 22
As soon as I'm free
I will run 2 U
I am a witness 4 the prosecution of a hate in this love affair.. !
No, your witness
(Witness 4 the prosecution) {repeat till fadeout}
Everybody witness
Come on now!
Oh Lord, witness
I love U baby, I love U baby
I swear
Don't leave me, baby
4 the prosecution
