Gettin' Away with Murder Songtext

von Patti Austin

I thought I had the only key
I thought you only opened up to me
What happened?
Don't know how you call it love.
I thought I was your brightest light
Someone else was lightning up your life
What happened?
Don't know how 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

You're getting away with murder
You can't love a girl and hurt her
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder
You can't tell a girl you love her
While you're working on another
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder

You weren't happy loving one
Two in the hand has left you holding none
It happens
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

You've been getting away with murder
You can't love a girl and hurt her
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder
You can't tell a girl you love her
While you're working on another
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder

You said I was the only one
But you were cheating all along
There ought to be a law for what you've done

I've got to save you from yourself
I've gotta stop you hurtin' someone else

You're not getting away with murder
You can't love a girl and hurt her
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder
You can't tell a girl you love her
While you're working on another
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder
You've been getting away with murder
You can't love a girl and hurt her
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder
You can't tell a girl you love her
While you're working on another
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder
You're no getting away with murder
You can't love a girl and hurt her
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder
You can't tell a girl you love her
While you're working on another
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder

You're getting away with murder
You can't love a girl and hurt her
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder
You can't tell a girl you love her
While you're working on another
That's getting away with,
Getting away with murder...
