LIVING TOGETHER (IN SIN)
(J. Cobb / Van McCoy)
The Whispers - 1976
Your folks and mine want to disown us
We're two sinners, they say
They don't approve of how we're livin'
But we're happy this way
They say we're living together in sin
'Cause we're not married
Living together in sin
But both of us are grown
And love is ours to choose
To each his own, we're in love
All of our friends never invite us
And they don't come around
But that's alright, we have each other
The world, they put us down
And say we're living together in sin
'Cause we're not married
Living together in sin
But both of us are grown
And love is ours to choose
To each his own, we're in love
They say we're living together in sin
They don't understand
You're my woman and I'm you're man
You and me against the world
I'm you're man and you're my girl
If loving you is a sin
Then I'm gonna sin again and again and again and again
Mom and Dad, can't you see
That we love each other, why can't it be?
For you, I'd turn my back on family and friends
For you, I'd do it again and again
and again, and again, and again,
and again, and again, and again ......... FADE
