I feel like I've been put on trial with you
I know that something's wrong and I'm the one accused
When the verdicts in, it's us who's gonna lose
I can't wait for you to finally hear the truth

'Cause I shouldn't have to plead my case
So much love to save

If you listen to the things that your friends say
You're gonna be lonely
How can you treat like that
When I give my all to you
'Cause I haven't been messin' around
I would never go out
And do the things you don't want me to do
'Cause I can tell you right now
That you will never find the evidence on me
And that's the truth
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
And that's the truth
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I need a lawyer just to talk
'Cause they're tellin' you what to say
They wish they had what we have
And its jealousy that's in the way.
'Cause I can't sit round
And watch them build a case
'Cause there's no savin' us now
I'm just doing this to clear my name

'Cause I shouldn't have to plead my case
So much love to save

If you listen to the things that your friends say
You're gonna be lonely
How can you treat like that
When I give my all to you
'Cause I haven't been messin' around
And I would never go out
And do the things you don't want me to do
'Cause I could tell you right now
That you will never find the evidence on me
And that's the truth
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
And that's the truth
Oh, oh, oh
That's the truth

'Cause I shouldn't have to prove my case
So much love to save
Save, save, save

If you listen to the things that your friends say
You're gonna be lonely
How can you treat me like that
When I give my all to you
'Cause I haven't been messin' around
And I would never go out
And do the things you don't want me to do
'Cause I could tell you right now
That you will never find the evidence on me
And that's the truth
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
And that's the truth
Oh, oh, oh, oh
