"Temptation" lyrics

"Temptation"

Rusted brandy in a diamond glass
Everything is made from dreams
Time is made from honey slow and sweet
Only the fools know what it means

Temptation, temptation
Temptation I can't resist

Well, I know that he is made of smoke
But I've lost my way
He knows that I am broke
But I must pay, yeah

Temptation, ooh, temptation
Temptation I can't resist

Dutch pink and Italian blue
He's there waiting for you
My will has disappeared
Now confusion is—oh—so clear

Temptation, temptation
Temptation I can't resist
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist
