Getting Away With Murder Lyrics
Meat Loaf
She thought she had the only key
She thought you only opened up to her, well you see
I dont 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 dont know why you call it love
Im not suspicious, no not me, but Im not blind
And Id have to be not to see
Chorus:
Gettin away with murder, you can love a girl and hurt her
Thats gettin away with, gettin away with murder
You can tell a girl you love her, while youre working on another
Thats gettin away with, gettin away with murder
You have had to love and run
Two in the hand has left you holding none, and I dont
I dont know how you call it love, no, no
Youre not demanding, no not you, youre understanding
You do what you wanna do
(chorus)
You said she was the only one, but you were cheating all along
There ought to be a law for what youve done
I got to save you from yourself, I got to stop you from hurtin someone else
(chorus repeats out)
