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
