"Temptation" lyrics

"Temptation"

Her love is like a haunted house
Ghosts behind every door
Along it's corridors the shadows race
To embrace me and hold me ever more

Her body burns with ectoplasmic fire
Turning this house to a shrine of desire
Like a dream, again and again
Until everything is consumed by the flames

Out of control
Stealing my soul
Wanting nothing more than a burning kiss
Wanting nothing more than a burning kiss
A burning kiss

Her love is like a haunted house
Ghosts behind every door
Along it's corridors the shadows race
To embrace me and hold me ever more

Out of control
Stealing my soul
Wanting nothing more than a burning kiss
Never wanted more then one burning kiss

Can take you away like a river of sadness
It can be a path that leads to madness
It can be as sweet as you please
It can keep you on your knees
As it whispers in your ears
Soft and low
Let's go, let's go, let's go
Let's go!
