We've
been taking it easy
Mak ing sure that we know
what we're doing is right
Girl, we're tryin' to
hold back
We don't want to be wrong
in the heat of the night
But I can't know you if
we never can touch
Who made the rule
that we'll both be breaking?
Come on, won't I need you so much?
It's time for giving, it's time for taking
Love is not a dirty word
It's a natural thing to people can do
In spite of what you might have heard
It's not a sin to like it too
We've been barely controlling
every animal need
that we feel inside, inside, an d it keeps getting harder,
keeps getting harder ,
if we're gonna be wrong,
girl I'll let you
Love is not a dirty word
It's a natural thing
two people can do
In spite of what you might have heard
It's not a sin to like it too
No matter what people say,
got to do things your own way,
they'll tell you where you went wrong,
but they're just singing
their own song.
You know what's right,
you know what's good
You make the choice,
do what you should
Love is not a dirty word
It's a matter of things that people can do
It's part of what you might have heard
It's not a sin to try
and get through
Love is not a dirty word,
it's a natural thing
to people can do.
In spite of what you might
have heard,
it's not a sin till I can do.
Love is not a dirty word.
