Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:


Lyrics

You came, I was alone
I should have known
You were temptation
You smiled, luring me on
My heart was gone
You were temptation
It would be thrilling
If you were willing
If it can never be, pity me
For you were born to be kissed
I can’t resist
You are temptation and I am yours
Here is my heart
Take it and say we’ll never part
I’m just a slave, only a slave
To you, temptation
