I've been a bad, bad girl I've been careless with a delicate man And it's a sad, sad world When a girl can break a boy just because she can Don't you tell me to deny it I've done wrong and I want to suffer for my sins I've come to you 'cause I need guidance to be true And I just don't know where I can begin, ooh What I need is a good defense 'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal And I need to be redeemed To the one I've sinned against Because he's all I ever knew of love Heaven help me for the way I am Save me from these evil deeds before I get them done I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand But I keep living this day like the next will never come Oh help me, but don't tell me to deny it I've got to cleanse myself of all these sins before I get done I've come to you 'cause I need guidance to be true And I just don't know where I can begin, ooh What I need is a good defense 'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal And I need to be redeemed To the one I've sinned against Because he's all I ever knew of love
