If I Was a Criminal

from Broken Hearts & Bitter Ends by Shandy Lawson

/

lyrics

If I was a criminal
Would you turn me in
If I was a traveler
Would you wonder where I’ve been
And if I was a tailor
Would you trust me with the pin
To keep you together at the seams

If I was a stranger
Would you say hello
And if I wore out my welcome
Would you let me know
And if I sang a song
Would I be a radio
Or just another minstrel on the scene

If I was a movie
Would you stay until the end
If I was a souvenir
Would you remember when
And if I wasn’t here
Would you still pretend
That I am somewhere lingering in the room
