I fell deep in Love the day I met her. In Blindness I felt she could do no wrong. I wanted to be with that girl forever. But That was long before I wrote this song. We started spending every night together. My world was getting brighter every day. I wanted to be with that girl forever.I never dreamed that I would ever say. She did the Crime and I did the Time. There's no such thing as justice anymore. She stole my heart and tore my world apart. She threw away my happiness and locked the door. I testified in my heart's defense, but her cheatin' litigation made a plea. She lied and got aquitted and destroyed the evidence,thats how She did the Crime and I did the time(instrumental break) It started with a phone call from her mother.
A family friend was comin' into Town. The friend turned out to be her other lover. Now there in Love and my world's upside down. I cought her makin Love to him one Mornin'. It must have been before the break of dawn. My sorrow turned to rage and then I shot her. Now the only one I ever loved is gone. She did the Crime and I did the Time. There's no such thing as justice anymore. She stole my heart and tore my world apart. She threw away my happiness and locked the door. I testified in my heart's defense, but her cheatin' litigation made a plea. She lied and got aquitted and destroyed the evidence,thats how She did the Crime and I did the time. Yeah She did the crime and I did the time
