Thief

Hear my appeal
I had no choices left
you see
I had to steal
to leave an imprint
you could trace to me

I really only ever
was your best friend
till we lay a little closer
than we meant

The emptiness you noticed
when I left
was just the evidence
of an oridinary theft

Try to stop me if you can
try to chase me through the night
try to catch me when I
break into your life
to steal your heart

Please arrest me
but don't question my belief
love made me thieve

I think I've seen it
in the mirror of your eyes
the feeling burns
how can I touch it
and not get hurt

As if I watch the fire
burn down our bed
and don't know
that you're the woman
with the match

Please don't let me hang here
in the blue
but confess to being guilty
like I do
like I do

Try to stop me if you can
try to chase me through the night
try to catch me when I
break into your life
to steal your heart

Please arrest me
but don't question my belief
love back the thief

If you don't get my clues
I'll carve our names into the moon
so every night from now
they'll be projected on you

Try to stop me if you can
try to chase me through the night
try to catch me when I
break into your life
to steal your heart

Please arrest me
but don't question my belief
love back the thief

I can't believe
you're really
lying here with me

Cos I'm a thief
and you are guilty now
of loving me
