Forgotten Voices lyrics



Love Crimes

They were lying there in bed
On the other side of midnight
It was something that he said
As the room was filled with starlight
And his words, they flew like birds
Across the sky
Where they nested in the tangles of her hair
She heard the quiet song go wrong
And suddenly withdrawn
She sighs and disappears
She designs out of her tears
Little Love Crimes

It was something of a game
The way their hearts lay hidden
Each so different yet the same
Secrets guarded and forbidden
And they moved their kings and queens along the board
As they planned a way to make a winning play
Without a word he plays her pawn
The battle lines are drawn
He will soon be made to pay
It's her nature, it's her way

Little love crimes (be careful what you say)
Love crimes (or the flame may fade away)
Little love crimes
And the fire turns to ashes
Blowing them apart
Little love crimes of the heart

He was praying for a sign
She was asking for a token
Both afraid to cross the line
For both their hearts were broken
Full of pride they tried to hide
the hurt inside
Each one building up a fortress made of stone
Behind the wall they sit and wait
She stalls he hesitates
She is safer all alone
He may soon be on his own

Little love crimes (be careful what you say)
Love crimes (or the flame may fade away)
Little love crimes
And the fire turns to ashes
Blowing them apart
Little love crimes of the heart
