I Stand Accused
Love on Trial: Embracing Guilt for Devotion
Lyrics
I stand accused of loving you too much
I admit to loving you excessively
I hope, I sure hope it's not a crime
I sincerely hope that loving you intensely is not considered a crime
'Cause I'm guilty
Despite any potential consequences, I acknowledge my guilt
Oh, I hope that I never have to testify
I hope I won't have to bear witness in a way that could bring sorrow
If I do, everyone's gonna cry
If I do testify, it will evoke widespread emotional reactions
That boy is guilty of loving you
I am unequivocally guilty of loving you
And though you belong to another
Even though you are committed to someone else
And I may not stand a ghost of a chance
Despite facing slim odds, I am willing to express my love
I'll tell the world that I love you
I will proclaim my love for you to the world
And I'm a victim of circumstance
My love for you is a result of uncontrollable circumstances
That's been proven guilty, oh, yes, I am
I have been proven guilty of loving you, and I accept it
Did you know one touch of your hand
Your touch has a profound effect on me
And I find myself on the witness stand
I feel compelled to testify about my love when touched by you
Shouting out all over the land
I'll passionately declare my love everywhere
Hey, hey, I'm guilty, guilty of loving you
It's confirmed, I am guilty of loving you
I'm guilty but what can I do
I acknowledge my guilt, but I am helpless in my love for you
I wanna hold you
I desire to embrace you despite the consequences
