Guilty as Charged Lyrics

Guilty as charged, you were on my mind
Try as I might I can't seem to lie
I can love you back if you like
I can hold you back if you like

And so I go back home to be by myself
I try everything I've ever read
Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head

'Cause you're on my mind
All the time
Now you're on my mind
All the time

A blessing in disguise I was on your mind
Try as you might you may well soon find
I am yours but you can't be mine
I am sure you'll always be mine

And so I go back home to be by myself
I try everything I've ever read
Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head
And so I stay at home alone with myself
I read through everything I've ever said
Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head

'Cause you're on my mind
All the time
Now you're on my mind
All the time

Crazy, crazy
I'm crazy about you
Crazy, crazy
I'm crazy about you

Caught in the act, you were on my mind
Lucky for you, now I'm on your mind
And so I go back home to be by myself
I try everything I've ever read
Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head

'Cause you're on my mind
All the time
Now you're on my mind
All the time

'Cause you're on my mind
(Crazy, crazy, crazy for you)
All the time
Now you're on my mind
(Crazy, crazy, crazy for you)
All the time
'Cause you're on my mind
(Crazy, crazy, crazy for you)
Yes, you're on my mind
(Crazy, crazy, crazy for you)
Always on my mind

Back in Your Head

Guilty as charged, you were on my mind
Try as I might I can't seem to lie
I can love you back if you like 
I can hold you back if you like

And so I go back home to be by myself
I try everything I've ever read 
Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head

'Cause you're on my mind
All the time
Now you're on my mind
All the time

A blessing in disguise I was on your mind
Try as you might you may well soon find
I am yours but you can't be mine
I am sure you'll always be mine

And so I go back home to be by myself
I try everything I've ever read 
Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head
And so I stay at home alone with myself
I read through everything I've ever said 
Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head

'Cause you're on my mind
All the time
Now you're on my mind
All the time

Crazy, crazy
I'm crazy about you
Crazy, crazy
I'm crazy about you

Caught in the act, you were on my mind
Lucky for you, now I'm on your mind
And so I go back home to be by myself
I try everything I've ever read 
Desperate, I still can't get you out of my head

'Cause you're on my mind
All the time
Now you're on my mind
All the time

'Cause you're on my mind 
(Crazy, crazy, crazy for you)
All the time
Now you're on my mind 
(Crazy, crazy, crazy for you)
All the time
'Cause you're on my mind 
(Crazy, crazy, crazy for you)
Yes, you're on my mind
(Crazy, crazy, crazy for you)
Always on my mind

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

i think this song is about having a huge crush on someone you, somehow, can't have or you are not able to tell that person about your feelings.

I thought the same thing, but why she said "Lucky for you, now I'm on YOUR mind"?
