I Stand Accused Lyrics - Elvis Costello

Girl, I stand accused 

People say, I love you 

Yeah, I stand accused 

Oh, but what can I do 

You belong to some other guy 

Hope I never have to testify 

If loving you is a big crime 

I've been guilty a long time 

Girl, I stand accused 

With no more than a chance 

Yeah, I stand accused 

And I got no defense 

All I need is a touch from your hand 

Find myself on the witness stand 

I'd be unable to lie girl 

I got a love that won't die girl

Tell the world that I was guilty 

I wouldn't stand a chance 

Tell the world that I was a victim 

A victim of circumstance 

Girl knock myself out see 

If I could explain 

Girl, I love you so much 

That I'm almost insane 

You disturbed my balance of mind 

Couldn't help what I did at the time 

I stand accused and I'm guilty 

Baby, I always will be 

I need a witness baby 

You disturbed my balance of mind 

Couldn't help what I did at the time 

I stand accused and I'm guilty 

Baby, I always will be
