Gettin’ Away with Murder
She thought she had the only key
She thought you only opened up to her, well, you see
I don’t know why you call it love
She thought she was the brightest light
But someone else was lighting up your life, what I think
I don’t know why you call it love
I’m not suspicious, no not me
But I’m not blind and I’d have to be, not to see
Gettin’ away with murder, you can love a girl and hurt her
That’s gettin’ away with—gettin’ away with murder
You can tell a girl you love her while you’re working on another
That’s gettin’ away with—gettin’ away with murder
You had to love and run
Two in the hand has left you holdin’ none, and I don’t
I don’t know how you call it love, no no
You’re not demanding, no not you
You’re understanding, you do what you want
She thought she was the brightest light
But someone else was lighting up your life, what I think
I don’t know why you call it love
I’m not suspicious, no not me
But I’m not blind and I’d have to be, not to see
Gettin’ away with murder, you can love a girl and hurt her
That’s gettin’ away with—gettin’ away with murder
You can tell a girl you love her while you’re working on another
That’s gettin’ away with—gettin’ away with murder
You said I was the only one
But you were cheating all along
There ought to be a law for what you’ve done
I got to save you from yourself
I got ta stop you hurtin’ someone else
Gettin’ away with murder, you can love a girl and hurt her
That’s gettin’ away with—gettin’ away with murder
You can tell a girl you love her while you’re working on another
That’s gettin’ away with—gettin’ away with murder
you can love a girl and hurt her
That’s gettin’ away with—gettin’ away with murder
You can tell a girl you love her while you’re working on another
That’s gettin’ away with—gettin’ away with murder....
