It's a sin Lyrics

When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame

For everything I long to do
No matter when, or where, or who
Has one thing in common too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin

At school, they taught me how to be
So pure in thought, and word, and deed
They didn't quite succeed

For everything I long to do
No matter when, or where, or who
Has one thing in common too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin

Father, forgive me
I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf
Then, tore right through it

Whatever you taught me
I didn't believe it
Father, you fought me
'Cause I didn't care
And I still don't understand
(Still don't understand) yeah

So, I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame

For everything I long to do
No matter when, or where, or who
Has one thing in common too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done (I've ever done)
Everything I ever do (I ever do)
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
(Oh yeah) it's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
