Guilty Of The Crime

There are some crimes we don’t mind admitting to, one being if we love our spouse too much, if we are sentenced to a lifetime of love and happiness, we can be too willing to accept and pay for the crime.

Guilty Of The Crime


Did I kiss you on the lips,
And hold you close to me,
Then yes I am guilty of the crime,
That they’re accusing me.

Did I fall in love with you,
Accept what you had to give,
Then again I am guilty of the crime,
With this I’ll forever live.

Did I stare at you with passion,
Did I dream of you at night,
Oh yes I am guilty of this crime,
But things will be alright.

Do I say I love you daily,
Do you return the thought to me,
Then I guess you too are guilty,
It’s so very plain to see.

Did I carve your name within my heart,
When I rest your body next to mine,
Then I know now that I am guilty,
For this crime, I’ll serve my time.

I was sentenced to a lifetime,
To forever love you everyday,
For this crime that I’ve committed,
I’m willing to forever pay.
