Criminal World — Simple Minds

I look for the answer I look for the light I walk on every highway Still I need you tonight So let it be love Lonely love Let it be love It's a criminal world

It hits like a bullet It screams and it hurts Is it my fascination Or does love come inspired

Don't hand me down, don't push me down Don't leave me lying on the frozen ground You can shelter me with your sweet action This world is splitting up and it's a chain reaction

It's a criminal world

You move like a vampire Risen from dust Is it my fascination

Don't hand me down, don't push me down Don't leave me lying on the frozen ground You can shelter me with your sweet action This world is splitting up and it's a chain reaction And when you point me to another place I can turn my back upon this wilderness And I'll step inside Step inside And find you waiting on the other side

It's a criminal world
