Temptation lyrics

Every time you turn around

You spy another place to go

Constantly needing change

You find it hard to rearrange

Your life is what it is

And you do what you do

No, it's not easy to love

But surely you can rise above...

...temptation

Ooh, la la la la, temptation

Temptation 

(All the temptation)

Temptation

Oh, now every time you turn around

All you can see is confusion and pain

Now we've got so many material things

But what we want are wings

To fly beyond our lonely lives

To make love to somebody true

But there's so many hungry people around

Just waiting for stars to crash to the ground

Temptation

That's all it is, it's just temptation

Ooh, la la la la, temptation

Temptation 

And all of the voices urging you 

To sing your song

But in the sad skies behind your eyes

The spirit isn't too strong

Oh, but music, sweet misery

Carries us up and away from trouble

Leaving our loved ones behind

Now you say you may lose your mind 

That's temptation

(Always temptation)

That's all it is, it's just temptation

(Always, always)

Starin' you right in the face, temptation

Ooh, la la la la, temptation

Ooh, temptation

Ooh, temptation

Ooh, temptation
