Temptation |
At this stage it should be said this could be nothing |
Or this it could be great |
And all my grand plans could be thrown into disarray |
But I must take the blame a half-hard word |
A broken promise |
Is that really you offers? |
Is that really you’re offering me? |
If all it takes is envy and a mention of her name |
To drive you off the rails |
Temptation will I survive I’m sure I will |
The temptation is rife to follow your lead |
Colour your eyes |
To take your chances, to take your chances whilst |
We have them |
And I can’t stand to see you as drunk as you are |
Slurring your words and staggering |
It’s all too much for me to take in |
So I will just find refuge in a well harvested harbour |
Bar and I’ll be slurring my words and staggering but |
Where’s the harm in that it seems? |
And now you’ve seen me lost, deserted and confused |
Is the love still there? |
Am I the man, am I the man |
That you imagined? |
The temptation is rife, to follow |
Your lead colour your eyes, to take your chances, to |
Take your chances whilst you have them |
You know that I hate you, but that’s not true at all |
Sometimes I want to hold you tight and sometimes I |
Want to throw you against the wall, but that’s not |
Hate at all it’s love in all it’s glory all the |
Contradictions and the questions that I don’t |
Understand and I probably never will |
If all it takes is envy and a mention of her name |
To drive you off the rails |
Temptation will I survive I’m sure I will |
The temptation is rife to follow your lead |
Colour your eyes |
To take your chances, to take your chances whilst |
We have them |
At this stage it should be said this could be nothing |
Or this it could be great |
And all my grand plans could be thrown into disarray |
But I must take the blame a half-hard word |
A broken promise |
Is that really you offers? |
Is that really you’re offering me? |
And now you’ve seen me lost, deserted and confused |
Is the love still there? |
Am I the man, am I the man |
That you imagined? |
The temptation is rife, to follow |
Your lead colour your eyes, to take your chances, to |
Take your chances whilst you have them |
If all it takes is envy and a mention of her name |
To drive you off the rails |
Temptation will I survive I’m sure I will |
The temptation is rife to follow your lead |
Colour your eyes |
To take your chances, to take your chances whilst |
We have them |
