I've been a
bad, bad girl
I've been careless
with a delicate man
And it's a
sad, sad world
When a girl will
break a boy
just because she can
Don't you tell me
to deny it
I've done wrong
and I don't wanna
suffer for my sins
I've come to you
'cause I need
guidance to be true
and I just don't know
where I can begin
Oooh what I need
is a good defence
'cause I'm feelin'
like a criminal
And I need to be
redeemed to the
one I've sinned against
because he's all
I ever knew of love
Heaven help me
for the way I am
Save me from
these evil deeds
before I get
them done
I know tomorrow
brings the
consequence
at hand
But I keep livin'
this day like the next
will never come
oh help me but don't
tell me to deny it
I've got to cleanse
myself of all these lies
till I'm good enough
for him
I've got a lot to lose
and I'm bettin' high
so I'm beggin' you
before it ends just tell
me where to begin
Hey hey what I need
is a good defence
'cause I'm feelin'
like a criminal
And I need to be
redeemed to the one
I've sinned against
because he's all
I ever knew of love
Let me know the way
before there's
hell to pay
Give me room
to lay the law
and let me go
I've got to make a play
to make my lover stay
So what would
an angel say
the devil wants
to know.....
What I need
is a good defence
'cause I'm feelin'
like a criminal
And I need to be
redeemed to the one
I've sinned against
because he's all
I ever knew of love
Ooh ooh what I need
is a good defence
'cause I'm feelin'
like a criminal
And I need to be
redeemed to the one
I've sinned against
because he's all I
ever knew of love.....
