What I need is a good defense'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminalAnd I need to redeemedTo the one I've sinned againstBecause he's all I ever knew of love
Heaven help me for the way I amSave me from these evil deedsBefore I get them doneI know tomorrow brings the consequenceAt handBut I keep livin' this day likeThe next will never come
Oh help me but don't tell meTo deny itI've got to cleanse myselfOf all these lies till I'm goodEnough for himI've got a lot to lose and I'mBettin' highSo I'm beggin' you before it endsJust tell me where to begin
What I need is a good defense'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminalAnd I need to redeemedTo the one I've sinned againstBecause he's all I ever knew of love
Let me know the wayBefore there's hell to payGive me room to lay the law and let me goI've got to make a playTo make my lover staySo what would an angel sayThe devil wants to know
What I need is a good defense'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminalAnd I need to redeemedTo the one I've sinned againstBecause he's all I ever knew of love
What I need is a good defense'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminalAnd I need to redeemedTo the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love
