Of Crime And Passion - Lyrics by Duran Duran


Lyrics
Why did you let me run when you knew I'd fall for the gaping hole where a heart should be

Liar couldn't cut me deeper with a knife if you tried

Just take a look before you run off and hide at your victim arise


Clouds on the shoulder aren't they grazed by the afterglow

How quiet they gather when the storm is about to blow

Oh Now (crime and passion) dont look away

Caught in the crossfire and there (crime and passion) ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passions rage


Summer of maddness or the undertow

Drag me up an alley for the blossoming fire on a strangers smile

Bride of wire how disguise so easily cracked

Saw your heart turn to spade this orchid's turned to black


Graze your shoulder like the clouds in the afterglow

How quiet they gather when the storm is about to blow

Oh Now (crime and passion) dont look away

Caught in the crossfire and there (crime and passion) ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passions rage


Way down by the shoulder in the haze of the afterglow

Stranded together and the storm's about to blow


Oh Now (crime and passion) dont look away

Caught in the crossfire and it (crime and passion) ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion

Don't look away caught in the crossfire and it (crime and passion)

Don't (crime and passion) look away

Caught in the crossfire and it ain't no wind of change
I'm talking of crime and passion

Don't (crime and passion) look away
