Lyrics
Love Ain't No Sin
If you wanted something from me
You could have just asked
You didn't have to come on so strong
If you wanted me to see through your looking glass
Would asking have been so wrong?
Nice words, soft touch
Goes a long way
If you know what I mean
Try it out some time
Try it out on me
Love ain't no sin
Love ain't no sin
You live, your life so bitter
You're gonna be a lonely man
Don't you wanna be loved?
Don't you think you can?
Love ain't no sin
Love ain't no sin
Maybe I'm not what you want me to be
Why can't you just be straight with me?
Are you waiting for me to say we're through?
Don't call me baby, I'll call you
Nice words, soft touch
Goes a long way
If you know what I mean
Try it out some time
Try it out on me
Love ain't no sin
Love ain't no sin
You live, your life so bitter
You're gonna be a lonely man
Don't you wanna be loved?
Don't you think you can?
Love ain't no sin
Love ain't no sin
Love ain't no sin
Love ain't no sin.
