Temptation
(Female Version) {Male Version after this below}
Words and Music by Nathan Thom © 2002

Temptation, Temptation, Temptation ? and one bite led to more ?

I was just an average housewife, taking care of kids and home,
With a dedicated husband, when my heart began to roam ?
And I started surfing websites, my desires got hold of me ?
Then a chat-room caught my eye one day, and a guy called ?Set You Free?.
I was bored with life provincial, ?longed for ?Hot Vacation Fun? ?
He suggested I should take a Cruise, and he?d meet me in the sun!

Temptation, took a bite out of me
Temptation, taste the fruit of the tree
Temptation ? took a bite just to see ? and one bite led to more ? one bite led to more.

Well I told my husband and my kids, I need some time for me ?
A cruise with sun and sand and surf, a Cruise is what I need!
So I gathered up my passion, and I let it rule my will,
And I guess somewhere inside I knew, my marriage it would kill!

-Chorus-

My husband?s gone and left me, ? found an e-mail from my beau.
? Hired a high priced law attorney, my unfaithfulness to show.
Dad took son and daughter and our home?s an empty place.
When I look into the mirror now ? I can see the devil face to face!

-Chorus-

There?s a lesson in this song for you babe,
There?s a lesson in this song for me,
If you live a life that lingers on lust then the heartache is bound to be ?
the heartache is bound to be?

-Chorus-

Temptation, Temptation, Temptation?and one bite led to more?one bite led to more

I was just an average husband, goin? to work from nine to five,
With an ordinary family, tryin? to keep us all alive,
But temptation faded through me like an apple cut by knife,
And my secretary wanted me?my lust was large as life.
She was such a pretty fancy and she stroked my ego blind,
Till I met the devil face to face and to me he seemed so kind?

Temptation ? took a bite out of me
Temptation ? taste the fruit of the tree
Temptation ? took a bite just to see and one bite led to more?one bite led to more

So I gathered up my passion and I let it rule my will
And I guess inside my heart I knew, my marriage it would kill?
Ah but I was young and debonair and I had to prove my youth?
So I splashed upon my best cologne and got dressed up to the tooth?

-CHORUS-

Well my wife she?s gone and left me?intuition told her go
And my faithful secretary, says she?s got another steady beau.
Wife took son and daughter and our home?s an empty place?
When I look into the mirror now, I can see the devil face to face?

-CHORUS-

There?s a message in this song for you babe?
There?s a message in this song for me?
If ya live a life that lingers on lust?
Then the heartache is bound to be?

-CHORUS-
