I went to see temptation yesterday
|
In a fourplex on the old high drive
|
Cause something in my life was runaway
|
Or maybe to prove that I am still alive
|
|
Temptation lives alone and she works all day
|
So I waited after five on her front porch
|
She arrived, parked her car and she walked my way
|
She smiled to see me standing at her door
|
|
Tell me now how pleasure can be a sin
|
She turned the key in the lock and let me in
|
|
Ah... Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do
|
Ah... Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do
|
|
Somewhere in the world tonight
|
Two lovers are treating each other right
|
Somewhere else in a lonely town
|
One lover waits an endless hour
|
|
Driving home in the dark I say this time will be the last
|
I know what I should never do
|
At least I'll keep temptations photograph
|
Maybe hang onto her phone number too
|
|
Tell me now how pleasure can be a sin
|
Well I don't plan to tell anyone where I've been
|
|
Ah... Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do
|
Ah... Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do
|
