It's A Sin When You Love Somebody

(album: I Can Stand A Little Rain - 1974)

Now the Lord will forgive you if you're cheating
And the Lord will forgive you if you're lying
Yes, He'll forgive and He'll help you to live
But He sure frowns down soundly on the likes of you and I, babe

'Cause it's a sin when you love somebody
Damned if you do, twice damned if you don't
It's a sin when you love somebody
As much as I'm loving you

Now the Lord has been known for his kindness
Always willing to set poor sinners free
He'll forgive and help you to live
But I still don't see no angels 'boutta shine down on you and me, baby

'Cause it's a sin when you love somebody
Damned if you do, twice damned if you don't
It's a sin when you love somebody
That loves you like I'm loving you

C'mon girls, tell it right here
(It's a sin when you love somebody) somebody
(Damned if you don't, twice damned if you do)
(It's a sin when you love somebody)
As much as I'm loving you, I'm loving you, what am I doing now? I'm loving you, yeah
(It's a sin when you love somebody)
(Damned if you don't, twice damned if you do)
(It's a sin when you love somebody)
As much as I'm loving you
