Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish I knew you
Back when we were both small
I wish I knew you
But I have gotten too tall
I wish I knew you
When touch was innocent
I wish I knew you
Before it felt like a sin
[Chorus]
Felt like a sin
Before it felt like a sin
Felt like a sin
Before it felt like a sin
[Verse 2]
There's nothing for me
Here, where the world is small
But how you touch me
For that, I'd leave it all
Back in the city
Cold eyes and lips of dust
So turn and face me
Turn to the altar of lust
[Chorus]
Felt like a sin
Before it felt like a sin
Pray for me on your knees
Pray for me on your knees
Pray for me on your knees
Before it felt like a sin
Felt like a sin
Before it felt like a sin
Pray for me on your knees
Pray for me on your knees
Pray for me on your knees
Before it felt like a sin
[Bridge]
Stay through the night
I'd spend the mornings by your side
Pray for me on your knees
Time slips away
Pray for me on your knees
Pray for me on your knees
Before the hillside turns to grey
[PreChorus]
Pray for me, kneel with me
Soak in the crystal stream
Wash the sin from your back
Cleanse my soul, make me whole
Dance in the morning glow
Hold me, we can't go back
Before it felt like a sin
[Chorus]
Felt like a sin
Before it felt like a sin
Pray for me on your knees
Pray for me on your knees
Pray for me on your knees
Before it felt like a sin
Felt like a sin
Before it felt like a sin
