Take Me to Church

I don't wanna love the way I loved before

I don't wanna love that way no more

What've I been writin' love songs for?

I don't wanna write 'em anymore

I don't wanna sing from where I sang before

I don't wanna sing that way no more

What've I've been singin' love songs for?

I don't wanna sing 'em anymore

I don't wanna be that girl no more

I don't wanna cry no more

I don't wanna die no more

So cut me down from this here tree

Cut the rope from off of me

Set me on the floor

I'm the only one I should adore

Oh, take me to church

I've done so many bad things, it hurts

Yeah, take me to church

But not the ones that hurt

'Cause that ain't the truth

And that's not what it's worth

Yeah, take me to church

Oh, take me to church

I've done so many bad things, it hurts

Yeah, get me to church

But not the ones that hurt

'Cause that ain't the truth

And that's not what it's worth

I'm gonna sing songs of lovin' and forgivin'

Songs of eatin' and of drinkin'

Songs of livin', songs of callin' in the night

'Cause songs are like a bolt of light

And love's the only love you should invite

Songs of long and spiteful fails

Songs that won't let you sit still

Songs that mend your broken bones

And don't leave you alone

So get me down from this here tree

Take the rope from off of me

Set me on the floor

I'm the only one I should adore!

Oh, take me to church

I've done so many bad things, it hurts

Yeah, take me to church

But not the ones that hurt

'Cause that ain't the truth

And that's not what it's worth

Yeah, take me to church

Oh, take me to church

I've done so many bad things, it hurts

Yeah, get me to church

But not the ones that hurt

'Cause that ain't the truth

And that's not what it's worth
