"Illegal" Lyrics

like a ship on troubled water
you were the waves that pulled me down
the words you threw at me
was the best i've ever heard
the lies you gave to me
was everything we shared

if you've never been in love
this may seem to you a little bit odd

'cause i lied to myself to make it feel like it was real
and when you gave me nothing
it was all i had
i tried to tell you i'll always need you like i do now
and baby, it should be illegal
to break a heart like you've done

someone should shut you ut
never lend a hand when you're reaching out
give you lies and stupidity
and never go to bed with you
break your bones one by one
leave you when you love someone

if you've never been in love
this may seem to you a little bit odd

'cause i lied to myself to make it feel like it was real
and when you gave me nothing
it was all i had
i tried to tell you i'll always need you like i do now
and baby, it should be illegal
to break a heart like you've done

i lied to myself to make it feel like it was real
and when you gave me nothing
it was all i had
i tried to tell you i'll always need you like i do now
and baby, it should be illegal
to break a heart like you've done
