The Coral - The Sinner

I go by the name of the Sinner
I move through the streets like a ghost
I used to work for the family
Now I'm running like a devil for the coast

Do you laugh, do you cry?
Will you sing a lullaby
For the Sinner?
I'm the Sinner

A deal gone wrong, now I'm on the run
I'm leaving Dublin behind
I catch a boat at Carlingford
And sail for Liverpool tonight

Do you laugh, do you cry?
Will you sing a lullaby
For the Sinner?
I'm the Sinner

He said betrayal's the greatest sin of all
And it's impossible to forgive a friend
She died like silence as it falls
I loved his sister until the end

I'll bide my time like a memory
And move in the shadows like a thief
One day I'll return to the Dublin
And I'll slit their throats while they sleep

Do you laugh, do you cry?
Will you sing a lullaby
For the Sinner?
I'm the Sinner
I'm the Sinner
I'm the Sinner
