I Lost You To Crime

(Renard - Renard)

I took you away from a life of shame,
But fear has drawn you back,
Guess you couldn’t stay, away from that flame,
Stepped off the narrow track.
I should have gone to look for you,
But I couldn’t stand the pain,
I couldn't bear to think of you,
Back on the streets again.

Yeh, I lost you to crime,
There’s no way of saying goodbye.
Yeh, I lost you to crime,
There’s no way of saying goodbye.
Yeh, I lost you to crime,
There’s no way of saying goodbye.

[Instrumental]

Seems they used you as a warning,
So the other girls would know,
Exactly what would happen,
To a girl who tries to go.
'had to identify you,
I walked back in the rain,
'wish I had known that you had gone,
Back on the streets again.

Yeh, I lost you to crime,
There’s no way of saying goodbye.
Yeh, I lost you to crime,
There’s no way of saying goodbye.
Yeh, I lost you to crime,
And there’s no way of saying goodbye….

Yeh, I lost you, oooh, I lost you,
I guess I lost you, long before I lost you.
Yeh, I lost you to crime,
There’s no way of saying goodbye.
Yeh, I lost you to crime,
And there’s no way of saying goodbye….

I lost you, now I'm grieving,
I guess there was no leaving,
The life that you were leading,
Unless you're leaving dead...
