Billy Joel Temptation Lyrics

Temptation Lyrics

It's time for me to be on my way I know

I've got business to conduct

And
I've got places to go

But I can't help looking at her sleeping
instead

Another morning I'll have trouble climbing out of this
bed

Because - she's such a temptation

It's driving me crazy

And
it's my fascination

That's making me act this way

And I know what all
my friends say

They're afraid that I'm losing my touch

But she's such a
temptation



I look so tired cause I don't get much sleep

And I've
got too many commitments that are too hard to keep

And I try to be
rational

And I try to be wise

But it all gets blown to pieces

When
I look in her eyes

Because - She's such a temptation

And nothing can
save me



And my only salvation

Is tearing myself away

And I
know what all of my friends say

There's a danger in wanting too
much

But she's such a temptation



I should be leaving

But I
can't cut loose

I have my reasons for resistance

But I have no
excuse

And I lose my composure

I could use some restraint

I never
claimed to be a hero

And I never said I was a saint

She's such a
temptation

It's driving me crazy

And it's my fascination

That's
making me act this way

And I can just hear all my friends say

"Better
watch out, you're losing your touch"

But she's such a
temptation



Yes she is

She's such a temptation

Yes she
is

Yes she is

She's such a temptation
