Temptation

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 --- Temptation - Billy Joel
