Loving Her

(album: Expectations - 2020)

If loving her's a sin, I don't wanna go to Heaven
No, there's nothing else up there I could need
And if I'm sinning every day, guess I'll sin all seven
If I can still have her by the end of the week

Ooh

And if loving her's a drug, then I wanna be addicted
Why would I get clean when the high's this good?
And she says I'm the only who can hit it
And all the other druggies just wish they could
They wish they could

You see, I used to be ashamed
To write a song that said her name
'Cause I was too afraid
Of what they all might say
But if loving her is wrong
And it's not right to write this song
Then I'm still not gonna stop
And you can turn the damn thing off

If loving her's a choice, she's all I'm gonna choose
No way you could sway me in another's favor
But some people choose Buddha or Jesus or booze
But her body's my temple and her soul is my savior

Ooh
Ooh

You see, I used to be ashamed
To write a song that said her name
'Cause I was too afraid
Of what they all might say
But if loving her is wrong
And it's not right to write this song
Then I'm still not gonna stop
And you can turn the damn thing off

Ooh
Ooh

If loving her hurts, I'll keep on hurting
If it means staying true to who I am
You may not agree. but like me, you're learning
That people don't like what they don't understand
No, people don't like what they don't understand

And you can shake your head
You can clench your fists
You can judge, hold a grudge
You can just be pissed
You can say it's wrong
You can say a prayer
While you're doing that
I'll be over there

Loving her
Oh, loving her
Loving her
Loving her
Ooh, loving her
Loving her
Loving her
