Robbie Mortimer - Doin' Time

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2001710
Verse 1
Put me in a ten-by-ten and lock me up
And throw away the key
'Cause, baby, I'm tired of running
From it
I'd be behind them bars
Carving hearts on concrete walls
With no regrets at all
That I'd done it

Chorus
'Cause when you walk into a room, you steal it
When you smile, girl, it's almost like cheating
The blue in your eyes, like a thief in the night, taking my breath away
But if loving you is a crime, then I'm fine
Doing time
Doing time

Verse 2
There'd be no need for judge or jury, I'd be guilty
Of falling for you in the first degree
I wouldn't worry 'bout the fences or the barbed wire
'Cause when I love you, from you can set me free

Chorus
'Cause when you walk into a room, you steal it
When you smile, girl, it's almost like cheating
The blue in your eyes, like a thief in the night, taking my breath away
But if loving you is a crime, then I'm fine
Doing time
Doing time, yeah

Chorus
'Cause when you walk into a room, you steal it
When you smile, girl, it's almost like cheating
The blue in your eyes, like a thief in the night, taking my breath away
But if loving you is a crime, then I'm fine
Doing time
Doing time

Outro
Doing time
Doing time

The singer describes being guilty of falling for their love interest in the first degree and being willing to serve time for it.
