Текст песни Witness 4 The Prosecution (Version 2 - 2020 Remaster) - Prince

This is the story of two childhood sweethearts
Inseparable ′til one broke the other one's heart
She wants to leave him but I would die first
Baby, don′t leave me, I didn't mean to hurt you
By heaven I swear
I am a witness for the prosecution of a hate in this love affair
I who am guilty of nothing but always wantin' you to be there
Mama, I swear I love you, I always have
In school I once traded chairs
I couldn′t feel you, if I couldn′t be near you
I wanted what was yours
Now I just want you to care
I am a witness
Witness for the prosecution
Witness for the prosecution
I am a witness
Witness for the prosecution, witness for the prosecution
I am a witness for the prosecution of a hate in this love affair
Yes I am
I didn't mean to hurt you, baby
Oh Lord, I wouldn′t even dare
I am a witness
Witness
Witness for the prosecution
Witness for the prosecution
Witness for the prosecution
Oh
Witness for the prosecution
Give me twenty years, gimme the electric chair
But nothing's gonna stop me, nothing′s gonna stop me
From killin' the hate in this love affair
Witness for the prosecution
I love you, I love you, and I do care
I am witness for the prosecution
For the prosecution of a hate in this love affair
I swear, woo!
Gimme death row, gimme solitaire
But don′t you leave me, baby, leave me, baby
I swear that I love you, huh, I always have
In school I once traded chairs
If I couldn't be near you, if I couldn't feel you, huh
I wanted what was yours
Now I just want you to care
Witness for the prosecution
Tell me, baby, tell me do you care?
Witness for the prosecution
Ooh
Witness for the prosecution
I swear
I will go to the electric chair
Nothing′s gonna stop me from burnin′ the hate in this love affair
Love affair
They can give me twenty-one years, no, make that twenty-two
As soon as I'm free, I will run to you
I am a witness for the prosecution of a hate in this love affair
I...
No, your witness for the prosecution
Everybody witness, yeah (witness for the prosecution)
C′mon now
Witness for the prosecution
Oh Lord
Witness for the prosecution
Oh, I love you, baby, I love you, baby (witness for the prosecution)
I swear (witness for the prosecution)
Don't leave me, baby (witness for the prosecution)
(Witness for the prosecution)
