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 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 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
