Talking aloud in a motel room But no one is listening The bed is unmade and the curtains are drawn And the wind is whistling Under cover the lover is waiting But I can't turn away I've been loving the sinner And hating the sin Loving the sinner yeah I know there's somewhere a man waits for her In misery And I can try all I want to Find the will But there aint no sympathy, no Under cover the lover is crying But I can't question why I've been loving the sinner And hating the sin Loving the sinner and hating the sin Hold me back until the trouble begins Loving the sinner and hating the sin I know somewhere a man waits for her Wonder where she can be And I tried so hard to find the will But there ain't no sympathy, no Under cover the lover is laughing Just got me where she wants me now I've been loving the sinner And hating the sin Loving the sinner and hating the sin Hold me back until the trouble begins I tried so hard and I don't want it to end I tried so hard and I cant' let it go I tried so hard and I cant' let it go I can't let it go, I can't let it go I tried so hard and I cant' let it go oh no
