While walking with back blocking winds
The swirl that twirls around is simple sins

The desire to be greedily warmer now
This is the starting how of the simple sins.

Wishing for the warmth of gentle touch
That can mean so much for warming soul and skin

There are those that will rent the warming touch
And it will not cost much to feel their warming skin

They will offer all on the cold city street corners
For just a few dollars will commit their simple sin

I walk with beyond them that dwell on cold corners
Letting chill down my collar to chill my blood and skin

Tacking across the street blowing me down the hill
I keep myself the chill and desire not those simple sins.

Sin is always simple, it's the aftermath that's hard.
