Lyrics
0:00Temptation - Semisonic
0:21I went to see temptation yesterday
0:25In a fourplex on the old high drive
0:31Cause something in my life was runaway
0:36Or maybe to prove that I am still alive
0:41Temptation lives alone and she works all day
0:46So I waited after five on her front porch
0:51She arrived parked her car
0:53And she walked my way
0:56She smiled to see me standing at her door
1:02Tell me now how pleasure can be a sin
1:07She turned the key in the lock and let me in
1:12Ah
1:17Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do
1:23Ah
1:27Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do
1:33Somewhere in the world tonight
1:36Two lovers are treating each other right
1:39Somewhere else in a lonely town
1:41One lover waits an endless hour
2:07Driving home in the dark I say
2:09This time will be the last
2:12I know what I should never do
2:17At least I'll keep temptations photograph
2:22Maybe hang onto her phone number too
2:27Tell me now how pleasure can be a sin
2:32I don't plan to tell anyone where I've been
2:37Ah
2:42Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do
2:48Ah
2:52Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do
2:57Yeah Ah
3:04Showed me what I shouldn't do
3:08Ah whoa
3:19Showed me showed me
Temptation - Semisonic I went to see temptation yesterday In a fourplex on the old high drive Cause something in my life was runaway Or maybe to prove that I am still alive Temptation lives alone and she works all day So I waited after five on her front porch She arrived parked her car And she walked my way She smiled to see me standing at her door Tell me now how pleasure can be a sin She turned the key in the lock and let me in Ah Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do Ah Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do Somewhere in the world tonight Two lovers are treating each other right Somewhere else in a lonely town One lover waits an endless hour Driving home in the dark I say This time will be the last I know what I should never do At least I'll keep temptations photograph Maybe hang onto her phone number too Tell me now how pleasure can be a sin I don't plan to tell anyone where I've been Ah Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do Ah Temptation showed me what I shouldn't do Yeah Ah Showed me what I shouldn't do Ah whoa Showed me showed me
