"Come on up and see me", is scribbled with a gold pen
But you'd better ring twice
Seven months after his little indiscretion
He sits with his wife at a therapy session
For a little advice
If the healing happens as the time goes by
Tell me why I still can't look her in the eye
God I'm only human, got no other reason
Sin for a season
There's a shaky hand shaking with the hand of her hostess
Drank a little much, but she'll drive herself home
If she can make it to her care
She never saw the sign or the boy with his daddy
Driving home late from their very first ballgame
And they don't get far
Now the years run together as her guilt goes wild
She still sees the body of an only child
God I'm only human, got no other reason
Sin for a season, sin for a season
Sin for a season, sin for a season
Wealthy lips say, "Keep us from the evil one"
While the praying hands prey with deliberate cunning
On the carcass of the cold
Gonna get the Good Lord to forgive a little sin
Get the slate cleaned so he can dirty it again
And no one else will ever know
But he reaps his harvest as his heart grows hard
No man's gonna make a mockery of God
I'm only human, got no other reason
Sin for a season, sin for a season
Sin for a season, sin for a season
Sin for a season, sin for a season
Sin for a season, sin for a season
Sin for a season
There's a sweaty hand handling his cocktail napkin "Come on up and see me", is scribbled with a gold pen But you'd better ring twice Seven months after his little indiscretion He sits with his wife at a therapy session For a little advice If the healing happens as the time goes by Tell me why I still can't look her in the eye God I'm only human, got no other reason Sin for a season There's a shaky hand shaking with the hand of her hostess Drank a little much, but she'll drive herself home If she can make it to her care She never saw the sign or the boy with his daddy Driving home late from their very first ballgame And they don't get far Now the years run together as her guilt goes wild She still sees the body of an only child God I'm only human, got no other reason Sin for a season, sin for a season Sin for a season, sin for a season Wealthy lips say, "Keep us from the evil one" While the praying hands prey with deliberate cunning On the carcass of the cold Gonna get the Good Lord to forgive a little sin Get the slate cleaned so he can dirty it again And no one else will ever know But he reaps his harvest as his heart grows hard No man's gonna make a mockery of God I'm only human, got no other reason Sin for a season, sin for a season Sin for a season, sin for a season Sin for a season, sin for a season Sin for a season, sin for a season Sin for a season Explain Request ×
