Johnny Cash - Why Do You Punish Me (For Loving You) lyrics
[Johnny Cash - Why Do You Punish Me For Loving You lyrics]
You're counting my mistakes
How about yours?
Why do you sentence me to nights of tears?
Convicting all these dreams I've dreamed
For all these years
My heart cries out behind these prison bars
It pleads to you for your true
Love to set it free
Why do you punish me? Is love a crime?
If so
I'll spend a lifetime loving serving time
My heart cries out behind these prison bars
It pleads to you for your true
Love to set it free
Why do you punish me? Is love a crime?
If so
I'll spend a lifetime loving serving time
