Passion's Not a Crime Lyrics

When did we leave, leave our childhood
We watched our future become yesterday
Do we blame ourselves when something evil steals our fortune?
When the innocence is plucked from the flower
Of our youth one petal at a time
Love begins to ask, ask for something in return

But deep, yes deep inside
All our passion, our passion's not a crime
We search out for the reasons, answers to our questions

Slowly turning cold
We're growing old
It's not what we're told
Did we stray from the fold?
When what you made is taken from you
The only reason you had for carrying on
You cry out for salvation, to heal the hole in your heart
They're not coming back

But deep, yes deep inside
All our passion, our passion's not a crime
We search out for the reasons, answers to our questions

Our souls are bought and sold
Our lives put on hold
It's not what we're told
Did we stray from the fold?
Our passion's not a crime
Do our hearts heal in time?
Life can turn on a dime
There's so little time

I'm down on my knees
Beggin' you please
I'll believe
Just come back to me
