A Crime of Passion Songtext
von Uriah Heep

Oh
Oh yeah
Mmm, Lord
Now listen

See the blind man at the dead of night
He can see so he won′t fight
Running scared like a swan in flight
On and on looking for delight
But it's you that he′s running
As his blindness turns to pride, yeah
Oh, Lord
Mmm

See the children in the jungle sun
Black man working 'til your work is done
He can't hide, there′s nowhere to run
Waiting for salvation to come
And it′s here, coming from afar
Guided only by a star


Oh, crime of passion, crime of pain
How long before I see you again?
I've been free and I′ve been high
Not a soul ever asked me why
Yeah
Oh yeah
Mmm, Lord

See the blind man at the dead of night
He can see so he won't fight
Running scared like a swan in flight
On and on looking for delight
But it′s you that he's running
As his blindness turns to pride
Yeah
Oh, oh


Oh, it′s a crime of passion, crime of pain
How long before I see you again?
I've been free and I've been high
Not a soul ever asked me why
Oh, crime of passion, crime of pain
How long before I see you again?
I′ve been free and I′ve been high
Not a soul ever asked me why
Crime of passion, crime of pain
How long before I see you again?
I've been free and I′ve been high
Not a soul ever asked me why
Oh, crime of passion, crime of pain
How long before I see you again?
I've been free and I′ve been high
