Criminal

I've been a bad, bad girl

I've been careless with a delicate man

And it's a sad, sad world

When a girl can break a boy just because she can

Don't you tell me to deny it

I've done wrong and I want to suffer for my sins

I've come to you 'cause I need guidance to be true

And I just don't know where I can begin, ooh

What I need is a good defense

'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal

And I need to be redeemed

To the one I've sinned against

Because he's all I ever knew of love

Heaven help me for the way I am

Save me from these evil deeds before I get them done

I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand

But I keep living this day like the next will never come

Oh help me, but don't tell me to deny it

I've got to cleanse myself of all these sins before I get done

I've come to you 'cause I need guidance to be true

And I just don't know where I can begin, ooh

What I need is a good defense

'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal

And I need to be redeemed

To the one I've sinned against

Because he's all I ever knew of love
