It's a sin my darling how I love you
Because I know our love can never be
It's a sin to keep this mem'ry of you
When silence proves that you've forgotten me

The dream I built for us has tumbled
Each promise broken like my heart
It's a sin my darling how I love you
So much in love and yet so far apart
[ vibes - steel ]
I'm sure you're happy with another
Who shares the love I couldn't win
Why pretend that I can't live without you
When deep inside I know that it's a sin
