Sin for a Season

<p>There&#x27;s a sweaty hand handling his cocktail napkin<br/>&quot;Come on up and see me&quot; is scribbled with a gold pen<br/>&quot;But you&#x27;d better ring twice&quot;<br/>Seven months after his little indiscretion<span><br/>He sits with his wife at a therapy session<br/>For a little advice<br/>&quot;If the healing happens as the time goes by<br/>Tell me why I still can&#x27;t look her in the eye&quot;<br/><br/>&quot;God I&#x27;m only human, got no other reason...&quot;<br/>Sin for a season<br/><br/>There&#x27;s a shaky hand shaking with the hand of her hostess<br/>Drank a little much, but she&#x27;ll drive herself home if<br/>She can make it to her car<br/>She never saw the sign or the boy with his daddy<br/>Driving home late from their very first ballgame<br/>And they don&#x27;t get far<br/>Now the years run together as her guilt goes wild<br/>She still sees the body of an only child<br/>&quot;God I&#x27;m only human, got no other reason...&quot;<br/>Sin for a season<br/><br/>Wealthy lips say &quot;keep us from the Evil One&quot;<br/>While praying hands prey with deliberate cunning<br/>On the carcass of the cold<br/>Gonna get the Good Lord to forgive a little sin<br/>Get the slate cleaned so he can dirty it again<br/>And no one else will ever know<br/>But he reaps his harvest as his heart grows hard<br/>No man&#x27;s gonna make a mockery of God<br/><br/>&quot;I&#x27;m only human, got no other reason...&quot;<br/>Sin for a season
