On the Level |
| I knew that it was wrong |
| I didn’t have a doubt |
| I was dying to get back home |
| And you were starting out |
| I said I best be moving on |
| You said we have all day |
| You smiled at me like I was young |
| It took my breath away |
| Your crazy fragrance all around |
| Your secrets all in view |
| My lost, my lost was saying found |
| My don’t was saying do |
| Let’s keep it on the level |
| When I walked away from you |
| I turned my back on the devil |
| Turned my back on the angel, too |
| They oughta give my heart a medal |
| For letting go of you (For letting go of you) |
| When I turned my back on the devil |
| Turned my back on the angel, too |
| Now I’m living in this temple |
| Where they tell you what to do |
| I’m old and I’ve had to settle |
| On a different point of view |
| I was fighting with temptation |
| But I didn’t want to win |
| A man like me don’t like to see |
| Temptation caving in |
| Your crazy fragrance all around |
| Your secrets in my view |
| My lost, my lost was saying found |
| My don’t was saying do |
| Let’s keep it on the level |
| When I walked away from you |
| I turned my back on the devil |
| Turned my back on the angel, too |
| They oughta give my heart a medal |
| For letting go of you |
| When I turned my back on the devil |
| Turned my back on the angel, too |
| They oughta give my heart a medal |
| For letting go of you |
| When I turned my back on the devil |
| Turned my back on the angel, too |
