No Saint

Lyrics

Forgive me, Father For have I sinned In the beginning, was Adam and me K-I-S-S-I-N-G under the apple trees We hid our love behind the leafs One day I was wondering Then I started wandering Found out that in the garden Forbidden fruit was just as sweet Forbidden fruit was just as sweet to me, yeah Paul, he came along Tried to make me believe Thought he helped me find a way I was no naive He spoke of higher powers I'd never use his name in vain I thought every word was gospel It wasn't God though, it was game It was game It wasn't God, no, it was game It was game Who's to blame? In this world of sin Baby, you're no saint I could just pretend but you're no saint No, I'm not afraid to say I'm no saint Then I met Elijah, oh the cherry of the fire Summoned me to the carriage Told him I could take him higher Still, he was a wise man Who could see beyond my wild plans He was on a righteous path No victim of desire So I went down to the water Where I could be made new And there was John, and there were dreams Some of them came true But he would never change And sure as hell wouldn't let me Down came the rain And that caused us to part like the red sea Like the red sea, part like the red sea Like the red sea, part like the red sea Oh Who's to blame? In this world of sin Baby, you're no saint I could just pretend but you're no saint No, I'm not afraid to say I'm no saint Who's to blame? In this world of sin Baby, you're no saint (You ain't perfect baby) I could just pretend but you're no saint (If I could take it all back) No, I'm not afraid to say (If I could take it all back) I'm no saint (I would take it all back) I never claimed to be a saint (Saint) I'm just human, baby I ain't perfect, baby (Saint)
