Is It A Crime - Gilbert O'Sullivan

Is it a crime to say I love you

A crime to say I care

Is it a crime to want you madly

With me everywhere

Is it a crime to be reminded

That someone close to you is true

If it's a crime of course I'm guilty

But you are guilty too

Is it unwise to ask a question

Unwise to ask how come

Is it unwise to say I'm sorry

For something I might have done

Is it unwise you'll have to tell me

Because as far as I can see

If it's unwise all I can say is

God help you and me

Patience Is a timely virtue

Helps us overcome delay

Waiting up all hours won't hurt you

But it will. done with skill

Kill you anyway

Is it a crime to say how are you

A crime to say how well

Is it a crime to beg forgiveness

After putting you through hell

Is it a crime you wouldn't think so

But from the looks that I've received

Not only should I not have said it

But I Shouldn't even speak

Memories alone won't take up

As much time as we'd like them too

Strangely enough. the more we break-up

The less I find peace of mind

Living without you

Is It a crime to say I love you

A crime to say I care

Is It a crime to want you madly (gladly)

Without you even there

Is It a crime to be remembered

By someone close to you

If it's a crime all I can say is

What is the world coming to
