Temptation lyrics

There she stood - I was ready -

laid her glove 'cross the table.

Later on, she said, "What's your hurry?"

Now I know she's gonna take me down

the streets of temptation.

Pouring cold running water

in your heart, diamond daggers.

Lord, I can tell you're a cheater.

What's the use?

She's gonna drag me down

the streets of temptation.

Well...

How'd we ever take it this far?

We don't even know what we're doing.

Got a gun in your hand,

but you don't understand how it feels.

Ooh, temptation.

Lock the door, party's over.

Thorny rose, bloody finger.

Stooped so low, had to pull the trigger.

Now I know she'll never get

up off the streets of temptation.

Oh, well...

How'd we ever take it this far

when we don't even know what we're doing?

Got a gun in your hand,

but you don't understand how it feels,

the temptation.

Temptation's got me by the balls
