I am not a crook

It wasn't like I looked
Until I found a taken man
To whom I could get hooked,
I'm asking you to understand,
I wasn't trying to find
Someone, to fill my time
And mind.
Thought I was the "lonesome" kind.
Could not believe my luck,
When you...... Came and
Pulled me up,
When I felt lowest of the low,
You know, you pulled me up,
When I'd gone as low as I could go.
You really pulled me up,
By my thighs, onto your face,
And then you threw me down
And made sure we were both
In the best place *BANG* 
It was 3 o' clock.
You had to fetch your kids from school,
But that was cool - completely cool -
I'd never want to steal you,
No, I am not a crook.

But you've got me begging
"Please, could I just see you for an hour?
Even twenty minutes? You don't even need to have showered!"
This is too much teasing, too much teasing, too much teasing.

I already lost my shame,
Around when I gained a blackened name.
Don't want it back again:
Was just a hinderance and a pain.
So, yeah, I did do that,
And that, and that, 
I probably did that, too,
But one thing that I always knew
Was the value of being true,
Because I am not a crook.

But you've got me begging
"Please, could I just see you for one hour?
Even twenty minutes? I don't care if you haven't showered!"
This is too much teasing, too much teasing, I'm doing too much pleading.

I try to call you up,
But it's only ten past nine,
You won't be at the pub,
For at least another hour's time.
So, of course, you don't pick up,
Because that'd only cause a stir,
But that is cool - completely cool -
I'd never steal you from her,
Not even if I could.
I'd never steal you from her,
No - I am not a crook.
Do you reckon, maybe,
I could just about get away with
Saying I'm a "fool for love?"
I know! 
I'd be the millionth person claiming that phrase today
But, you know, It's true enough.
I've been a fool.
But it wasn't like I looked
Until I found a taken man
To whom I could get hooked.
No - I am not a crook.
