Lyrics
Well the jury's out and the gavel's down
They say I've been seen all over town
Red lips sly hips a heart too bold
But love's no crime or so I'm told
He walked in smooth with a Cheshire grin
I took one look and fell right in
But darling hearts are fickle things
And mine just happens to come with strings
Oh I swear Your Honor it was love
Not a scheme not a shove not a push or a shove!
I tripped I slipped right into his arms
Blame the moonlight blame his charms!
Now some may say I set the stage
That love's just lines I read from a page
But tell me darling what's a girl to do
When every man mistakes her cue?
Ooh love's a verdict a case a plea
And sometimes it's just… accessory
If loving's a crime I'll take the fall
But lock me up in a suite not a hall
Oh I swear Your Honor it was love
Not a scheme not a game not a push or a shove!
I tripped I slipped right into his arms
Blame the moonlight blame his charms!
Now some may say I set the stage
That love's just lines I read from a page
But tell me darling what's a girl to do
When every man mistakes her cue?
Love's a verdict a case a plea
And sometimes it's just… accessory
If loving's a crime I'll take the fall
But lock me up in a suite not a hall
Oh I swear Your Honor it was love
Not a scheme not a game not a push or a shove!
I tripped I slipped right into his arms
Blame the moonlight blame his charms!
So tell me Judge what's my fate?
A slap on the wrist or a dinner date?
If loving's illegal I'll sign on the line
Just make sure the handcuffs match my wine
So tell me Judge what's my fate?
A slap on the wrist or a dinner date?
If loving's illegal I'll sign on the line
Just make sure the handcuffs match my wine
