Verse

 Talking out loud in a motel room

 but no one is listening

 the bed is unmade and the curtains are drawn

 and the wind is whistling

Chorus

 under cover the lover is waiting

 but I can't turn away

 I've been loving the sinner

 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
