You can love your way
Round this whole wide world
Leaving wide-eyed Romeos
To roam the streets
But this time your leaving
Won't come easy
No fun in the running
Like there used to be
You say to me
You'll see me soon
Like every other promise that you never keep
But this time you're goin'
Out heavy and slow
And you don't seem to know
Why you drag your feet
Is it planetary motion
Goin' round and round?
Gravitational forces
Bring you right back down
You can run forever
It's just a matter of time
`Cause they always come back
To the scene of the crime
Curve of the world
Twist of fate
Bend in the road
Big mistake
To touch down in my town
Can't be denied
We're emotional outlaws
Like Bonnie and Clyde
Your renegade conscience
My runaway heart
Held up in the foothills
Of your mind
You can run forever
But you've got to come down
Sometime
`Cause they always come back
To the scene of the crime
It was a picture-perfect getaway
Down to the letter
You couldn't have planned it better
If you tried
But it was fixed from the beginning
Now your other side is winning
Got your steering wheel spinning
Double cross your heart
And hope to die
A little surrender
Goes a long, long way
So get yourself captured
Set yourself free
What good's your heart to you
If you never do the time?
They always come back
To the scene of the crime
They always come back
To the scene of the crime
