Lyrics

You say that I don’t listen,
That I don’t give you no respect,
You took your love to some other place,
Now, what did you expect?

We made vows inside the church,
To forgive each other’s sins,
But there are things I have to endure,
Like the smell of another man’s skin.

If that’s not loving you,
I don’t know what is.
If that’s not loving you,
Then tell me what it is.
If that’s not loving you,
I don’t know what is.
If that’s not loving you,
Then tell me what it is.

You say you wanted children,
And you would grow into a mother,
But in my mind’s eye I always see you,
In the arms of another.

I am given to jealousy,
I’ve been given to violence,
But I could never raise a hand in my defence,
So I suffer here in silence.

If that’s not loving you,
I don’t know what is.
If that’s not loving you,
Then tell me what it is.
If that’s not loving you,
I don’t know what is.
If that’s not loving you,
Then tell me what it is.

I pray the waters of forgiveness,
Will rain down on you and me,
Just like newborn babies,
In the cradle of a tree.

And we will walk in righteousness,
We will walk in rain and thunder,
And what God has joined together here,
Let no man put asunder.

If that’s not loving you,
I don’t know what is.
If that’s not loving you,
Then tell me what it is.
If that’s not loving you,
I don’t know what is.
If that’s not loving you,
Then tell me what it is.
If that’s not loving you,
I don’t know what is.
If that’s not loving you,
Then tell me what it is.
If that’s not loving you,
I don’t know what is.
If that’s not loving you,
Then tell me what it is.
