I Stand Accused Elvis Costello

[Verse 1]
Girl, I stand accused
People say I love you
Yeah, I stand accused
Oh, but what can I do?
You belong to some other guy
Hope I never have to testify
If loving you is a big crime
I've been guilty a long time

[Verse 2]
Girl, I stand accused with no more than a chance
Yeah, I stand accused, and I got no defense
All I need is a touch from your hand
To find myself on a witness stand
I'd be unable to lie, girl
I got a love that won't die, girl

[Bridge]
Tell the world that I was guilty
I wouldn't stand a chance
Tell the world that I was a victim
A victim of circumstance

[Verse 3]
They might show some mercy if I could explain
Girl, I love you so much that I'm almost insane
You disturbed my balance of mind
I couldn't help what I did at the time
I stand accused and I'm guilty
Baby, I always will
