Is this a world of strangers, a cold and cruel life
Or can I call this place my home
I'll step into the danger, if only for one night
I can't keep living all alone

This time you could be my only one, this time we gotta take a chance
'Cause you and I are

Chorus:
Partners in crime, caught between what's right and wrong
We're two of a kind
Partners in crime, when you think you can't go on
You'll reach out and find, together we survive

I can't control the anger, these feelings deep inside
It makes my body feel so cold
I've searched so many faces, too many desperate nights
I need someone like you to hold

This time I could be your only one, this time we gotta take a chance
'Cause you and I are

(chorus)
Partners in crime, partners in crime

(Solo)

This time I wanna be your only one, this time we gotta take a chance
'Cause you and I are

(chorus repeats 2x)
Partners in crime, partners in crime
Partners in crime, partners in crime

(chorus to fade)
