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'll 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 set sea
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'll 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
And saw 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
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
Everything I'll 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
It's a
It's a
It's a
It's a sin
