Accused Of Love Lyrics

You speak to me in natural harmony
Like we both grew up with nothin'
And I can't believe my own memory
But it one day could be coming

And I don't even know the wrong I've done
And I don't even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love

Watched the sun go down behind London Town
I was burnt, stood up in Mayfair
I caught a train, black car through the rain
From the trust that hung betrayed there

And I don't even know the wrong I've done
And I don't even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love

Well, the attorney grins, the witness is drug in
With his face half hid in shadow
Sworn to God and State the truth arrives too late
And defense goes out the window

And we don't even know the wrong we've done
And we don't even care anymore
All I know is I believe that you and me
Forever will stand accused of love
Will stand accused of love
Will stand accused of love

Cover art for Accused Of Love lyrics by Tom Petty

This is one of my favorite TP songs, maybe cause im just a hopeless romantic. I think its a great analogy of a awesome relationship. Can your love stand up to a trial? And of course some bad things are going to happen, but when you are really in love it just doesnt matter.

i think it's a wonderful song, and clever to think of love as some sort of wrongdoing. But just one of those classic Petty choruses that stick in your head for days. Under-rated tune.
