It's A Crime

Artists : Magnetic Fields, The : It's A Crime

It's a crime to fall in love
heart and mind and soul in love
It's a crime to fall in love
so hard so hard

I shouldn't have bothered cause you're just like all the others,
now I know and I won't do that again
I should have guessed that you'd be just like all the rest,
but now I know not to go though that again

I'm still crying all night and all day
but if I show it someone lock me away cause...

My Mama said gently, you can buy her a Bentley,
but my child she'll only drive it away
I didn't listen cause my brain was missing
and I only found it today
I was a man but now I'm only a child
and if it kills me I am going to smile because...

You won't be hearing from me anymore
cause I can't see through my tears anymore
If it takes years to be any more than a jellyfish
I will not tell you this, because...
