Witness 4 the Prosecution (Version 2)

[Intro]

This is the story of two childhood sweethearts, inseparable 'til one broke the other one's heart

She wants to leave him but I would die first

Baby, don't leave me, I didn't mean to hurt you

By heaven I swear

[Chorus]

I am a witness for the prosecution of a hate in this love affair

I who am guilty of nothing but always wantin' you to be there

[Verse 1]

Mama, I swear I love you, I always have

In school I once traded chairs

I couldn't feel you, if I couldn't be near you

I wanted what was yours

Now I just want you to care

[Chorus]

I am a witness

Witness for the prosecution

Witness for the prosecution

I am a witness

Witness for the prosecution

I am a witness for the prosecution of a hate in this love affair

Yes I am

I didn't mean to hurt you, baby

Oh Lord, I wouldn't even dare

I am a witness

Witness

Witness for the prosecution

Witness for the prosecution

Witness for the prosecution

Oh

Witness for the prosecution

[Verse 2]

Give me twenty years, gimme the electric chair

But nothing's gonna stop me, nothing's gonna stop me

From killin' the hate in this love affair

Witness for the prosecution

I love you, I love you, and I do care

I am

Witness for the prosecution

For the prosecution of a hate in this love affair

I swear

Whoo

I swear

[Verse 3]

Gimme death row, gimme solitaire

But don't you leave me, baby, leave me, baby

I swear that I love you, huh, I always have

In school I once traded chairs

If I couldn't be near you, if I couldn't feel you, huh

I wanted what was yours

Now I just want you to care

Witness for the prosecution

Tell me, baby, tell me do you care?

Witness for the prosecution

Ooh

Witness for the prosecution

I swear

I will go to the electric chair

[Outro]

Nothing's gonna stop me from burnin' the hate in this love affair

Love affair

They can give me twenty-one years, no, make that twenty-two

As soon as I'm free, I will run to you

I am a witness for the prosecution of a hate in this love affair

I...

No, your witness

Witness for the prosecution

Everybody witness, yeah

Witness for the prosecution

C'mon now

Witness for the prosecution

Oh Lord, witness

Witness for the prosecution

Oh, I love you, baby, I love you, baby

Witness for the prosecution

I swear

Witness for the prosecution

Don't leave me, baby

Witness for the prosecution

Don't you leave me
