We were drinking whiskey

We were talking men

She'd never see the sunny side

Of forty two again

She was in love

With a boy of twenty nine

This was something new

What should she do

What could she do

You made her burn like fire

Made her drunk like wine

No one else had loved her

Oh for such a long long time

She was afraid

It was moving way too fast

The die was cast

How could this last

It was a crime of the heart

We all know that love's insane

Form the start

Where there's passion

There is pain

What do we gain

Committing crimes of the heart

He was crazy jealous

Of everyone she met

Suspicious of the little things

That hadn't happened yet

He devoured every minute of her time

She didn't mind

After all

Young love's always blind

It's a crime of the heart

We all know that love's insane

Form the start

Where there's passion there is pain

What do we gain

Committing crimes of the heart

Funny how tomorrows

Turn into yesterdays

Funny how a mirror

Never lies

Somehow the hands of time

Turn back the other way

Every time I look into his eyes

The night was half past over

Time for going home

She said she'd rather walk

She needed time to be alone

When you're living

Your love from day a day

Somtimes tomorrow

Is the price you have to pay

For these crimes of the heart

We all know that

Love's insane form the start

Where there's passion there is pain

And love is what we gain

Committing crimes of the heart

Crimes of the heart

Of the heart
