Temptation

(album: Martika's Kitchen - 1991)

Come over here
Right now, yeah

Just you and me
The image of the way it's gonna be
Close by my side
Living in the luxury of paradise

Did you ever want something so bad, you'd risk it all
No matter what the the consequences are
You've lost control of something deep inside your soul
And now it's gone a little bit too far

Temptation
Tapping on the back of my neck
Up and down my spine
Working on my mind
I haven't got rid of it yet
Temptation
Every day it's haunting me back
Scratching on my brain
Driving me insane
I can't seem to get on track

I know you've got
Oh, someone in your life but I can't stop
Oh, we've tried to be just friends
But you feel it just like I do, so don't pretend

'Cause you know you want it so bad that you'd risk it all

No matter what the consequences are
You've lost control of something deep inside your soul
And now it's gone a little bit too far

Temptation
Tapping on the back of my neck
Up and down my spine
Working on my mind
I haven't got rid of it yet
Temptation
Every day it's haunting me back
Scratching on my brain
Driving me insane
I can't seem to get on track

Afraid you've lost a part of yourself
All your thoughts go to someone else
Bit by bit 'til there's nothing inside
Temptation is the question that you can't decide

'Cause you know you want it so bad that you'd risk it all

Temptation
Tapping on the back of my neck
Up and down my spine
Working on my mind
I haven't got rid of it yet
Temptation
Every day it's haunting me back
Scratching on my brain
Driving me insane
I can't seem to get on track

Temptation
Tapping on the back of my neck
Up and down my spine
Working on my mind
I haven't got rid of it yet
Temptation
Every day it's haunting me back
Scratching on my brain
Driving me insane
I can't seem to get on track

You can't control this feeling that you're feeling
And everyday life seems less than real and
You're body and mind don't connect to your soul
You try everything but there's no place to go
Admit to yourself that you have an addiction
The love in your life has caused you infliction
The deeper you go, the higher you search
But before it gets better it's gonna get worst
Kick it in!

Temptation that you can't live without
Given you something to think about
Temptation that you can't live without
Given you something to think about
