Van Dyke Parks
Love Can Be a Crime
I was wrong
I'm the first one to admit it- I did it

I gave you love
But it wasn't mine for giving- or living with you

I move too soon
Unlike at the moon
'cause nights seem long
In a head like mine
Knowing love can be a crime

I couldn't be
What I should have been for you- I drew a false picture in your head

I live inside
An idea of an idea- I see you and know it's all my fault

I move too soon
Unlike at the moon
'Cause nights seem long
In a head like mine
Knowing love can be a crime
