Happy Sinner

I'm a lucky man
'Cause I don't have to live forever
I'm an also ran
In the race to get to heaven

But I've got a smile on my face
'Cause there's blood in my veins
And life doesn't get any better
For this happy sinner

If love's to be the death of me
Then I won't cry
And if lying with you is blasphemy
I'll pay the price

'Cause my soul's at rest
With my head on your chest
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get
And I hope you'll give in to your happy sinner tonight

Like my father said
Son, the best of us are failures
So get it through your head
Nobody's gonna come to save us

And though we made some mistakes
And we share the same face
Can't blame him for my misbehavior
I'm just a happy sinner

And if love's to be the death of me
Then I won't cry
And if lying with you is blasphemy
I'll pay the price

'Cause my soul's at rest
With my head on your chest
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get
And I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner

I'm down on my knees
And the sword of Damocles
Is over my head
It's over my head

And God knows
I'm taking liberties
Where angels won't tread
Where angels won't tread?

If love's to be the death of me
Then I won't cry
And if lying with you is blasphemy
I'll pay the price

'Cause my soul's at rest
With my head on your chest
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get
And I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner tonight

Yes I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner tonight
