I Stand Accused

(Jerry Butler, William Butler)

I stand accused

Of lovin' you too much

And I hope, I hope it's not a crime

'Cause if it is, I'm guilty

Of lovin' you, you, you

I, I hope to God

That I never have, oh, to testify

'Cause if I do

Everyone is gonna, they're gonna cry

They're gonna say

[Incomprehensible] is guilty

Of lovin' a sweet girl like you

I know, I know

You belong to another

I, I may not stand a ghost of a chance

I'll stand on top of Mount Everest

And proudly tell the world that I love ya

Oh yes, I will

Because I, I just can't

I can't help myself

I'm a victim of circumstance

And just one

Ooh, one touch of your hand

I don't know how it happened

But just look at me

I find myself chillin'

On the witness stand

And I'm shoutin' out

All over, all over the land

[Incomprehensible]

I'm guilty of lovin', lovin' you

I'm guilty of lovin' you

I said, I'm guilty

But what can I do?

I wanna hold ya

I wanna squeeze ya tight

But my mind said

She belong to another

And that ain't right
