You opened up your door

I couldn't believe my luck

You in your new blue dress

Taking away my breath

The cradle is soft and warm

Couldn't do me no harm

You're showing me how to give



Into temptation

Knowing full well the earth will rebel

Into temptation



In a muddle of nervous words

Could never amount to betrayal

The sentence is all my own

The price is to watch it fail

As i turn to go

You looked at me for half a second

An open invitation for me to go



Into temptation

Knowing full well the earth will rebel

Into temptation

Safe in the wide open arms of hell



We can go sailing in

Climb down

Lose yourself when you linger long

Into temptation

Right where you belong



The guilty get no sleep

In the last slow hours of morning

Experience is cheap

I should've listened to the warning

But the cradle is soft and warm



Into temptation

Knowing full well the earth will rebel

Into your wide open arms

No way to break the spell

Don't tell
