Getting Away With Murder

Meat Loaf · Masters [1999]

She thought she had the only key

She thought you only opened up to her

Well you see

I don't know why you call it love



She thought she was the brightest light

But someone else was lighting up your life

What I think

I don't know why you call it love



I'm not suspicious

No not me

But I'm not blind and I'd have to be not to see



Gettin' away with murder

You can love a girl and hurt her

That's gettin' away with

Gettin' away with murder

You can tell a girl you love her

While you're working on another

That's gettin' away with

Gettin' away with murder



You have had to love and run

Two in the hand

Instead you're holding none

And I don't

I don't know how you call it love

No no



You're not demanding

No not you

You're understanding

You do what you want to do



Gettin' away with murder

You can love a girl and hurt her

That's gettin' away with

Gettin' away with murder

You can tell a girl you love her

While you're working on another

That's gettin' away with

Gettin' away with murder



Said she was the only one

But you've been cheating all along

There ought to be a law for

What you've done



[instrumental bridge]



I got to save you from yourself

I got to stop you from hurting someone else



You've been gettin' away with murder

You can love a girl and hurt her

(Gettin' away with)

Gettin' away with murder

You can tell a girl you love her

While you're working on another

(Gettin' away with)

Oh, gettin' away with murder



OHH!!



(Gettin' away with murder)

(You can love a girl and hurt her)

(Gettin' away with)

(Gettin' away with murder)

Tell a girl you love her

While you're working on another

That's gettin' away with

(Gettin' away with murder)



OHH!!



Gettin' away with murder

You can love a girl and hurt her

That's gettin' away with

Gettin' away with murder

You can tell a girl you love her

While you're working on another...
