How proud I would have been to share your life of sin
But you saw someone new I wouldn't do for you
I wouldn't mind at all to let my morale's fall
I'd like to try again how proud I would have been
Don't think that I'm above selling my soul for love
And if that's what it cost then take the price tag off
Without your love I'll be a whole lot less than me
I'd like to try again how proud I would have been
A sinners just an angel that slipped and fell
For one like you I'd play a sinners part so well
I'd stoop to any length to gain your love it seems
I'd like to try again how proud I would have been
