If Loving You is a Crime (I'll Always Be Guilty) - Lee Moses

If loving you is a crime

Then give me time

Cause I always be guilty

Sometimes, I feel that I’m on trial

For loving you too much, child

You’re the judge and the jury

Of my peers

If it’s time for me to talk

Lord, listen here

If you don’t want me

To steal your heart

Lock me up

and keep us both apart

And if they let me go,

I know it

I will do the same thing

over again

So if loving you’s a crime

then give me time

Cause I’ll always be guilty

Lord, have mercy

I stand before you

a condemned man

Because I had

a deliberate plan

To steal your heart

Oh, your love away

But I got caught

what can I say?

I’m guilty, so guilty

Woo, Lord, guilty

but I know now

If they let me go

I know it

I will do the same thing

over again

So, if loving you is a crime

Then give me time

Cause I always be guilty

So guilty, so guilty

So guilty

I’m sitting in a witness stand

I got to plead guilty

If it’s a crime in this world

for loving a woman

somebody let me know

I’ll serve the rest of my life

Pleading love, love
