When You Love A Sinner

歌詞

When you love a sinner, You hate the sin You hate the temptress in the bottle Seducin' him again And you blame the cold for the winter When you love a sinner I tell myself that everything's okay I paint a pretty smile on my face He lies and says, "I'll change" But on his breath and in his veins The truth still remains Deep down, you know That it's a crime You know you didn't pull the trigger But you're the one who does the time And you pay the debt; you're the lender When you love a sinner I tell myself that everything's okay I paint a pretty smile on my face But I'm slowly lettin' go Cause in my heart I know That I can't make him better And I've been goin' under And now I understand That you can't tread water With a drownin' man I love a sinner I justify it how I can So, it's the sin I'm leaving, not the man
