Heaven's just a sin away
Oh, oh, just a sin away
I can't wait another day
I think I'm giving in

How I long to hold you tight
Oh, oh be with you tonight
That still don't make it right
'Cause I belong to him

Oh, way down deep inside
I know that it's all wrong
Your eyes keep tempting
But I never was that strong

Devil's got me down
Oh, oh gone and got me now
I can't find him anyhow
I think he's gonna win

Heaven's just a sin away
Oh, oh, just a sin away
Heaven help me, when I say
I think I'm giving in

Oh, way down deep inside
I know that it's all wrong
Your eyes keep tempting
But I never was that strong

Devil's got me down
Oh, oh gone and got me now
I can't find him anyhow
I think he's gonna win

Heaven's just a sin away
Oh, oh, just a sin away
Heaven help me, when I say
I think I'm giving in

I think I'm giving in
I think I'm giving in
