"And what is your crime?" the judge, he said,
"To whom did you cause harm or dread?
For I see no blood, no theft, no pain,
Yet you stand accused all the same.
Is it love that brought you here today?
And if it is, then what can I say?
For love, in all its varied forms,
Should never be the cause of storms.
But still, the law binds my hand,
Though it’s a law I don’t understand.
For love is no crime, and I must confess—
This verdict leaves my heart in distress."
