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 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
