Riley Burke - Cold Case Lyrics

Describe to me the motive, darling
What do you gain by being cruel?
Do all the riches truly awe you?
Remember when I was your jewel?

I always knew this wasn't easy, I take the blame, you run and hide
Got to escape, we're running out of time
You said "I came, I conquered, had my fun, but this is getting old"
And now you've disappeared, the case goes cold

This is a cold case love
You've always had an alibi, but somehow still you can't deny the
Cold case love
Not guilty, please just set me free
We all know that you should be doing time

Of course you're innocent till proven
So wash the blood that's on your hands
Ignorance is bliss, you used to tell me this
And I kept up the act, but baby now I can't

I always knew this wasn't easy, you fled the scene time after time
But you can't leave the Bonnie to your Clyde
Who says you're gone for good? Your footprints follow me along the sand
But fade away when I reach for your hand

This is a cold case love
You've always had an alibi, but somehow still you can't deny the
Cold case love
Not guilty, please just set me free
We all know that you should be doing time
Time

I've been waiting on a warning fire
I've been waiting on a proof of life
I've been waiting on a trial or anything to clarify
I've been waiting on information, confrontation, liberation
Incrimination

This is a cold case love
You've always had an alibi, but somehow still you can't deny the
Cold case love

This is a cold case love
You've always had an alibi, but somehow still you can't deny the
Cold case love
Not guilty, please just set me free
We all know that you should be doing time

(Cold case love)
(Cold case love)
(Cold case love)
