Joey Tempest - Pleasure And Pain lyrics

I hate it when you wander,

So sensual and free

And I hate it when you're psychic,

With things I cannot see

I hate it when you lead on,

Like you know which way to go

And I hate it when you stumble

And you never touch the floor

A pathological liar,

I am falling again

With a flood of desire,

I walk the line,

Between pleasure and pain

I hate it when you're lying,

So close to me at night

And I hate it when you whisper,

Sweet words into my mouth

Yet, a woman be the reason,

A woman be the light

A woman be the colour,

If faith would be my sight

I'm a man of contradiction,

With a heart so restrained

So afraid of commitment,

I walk the line,

Between pleasure and pain

It may take one lifetime

Or it may take one day

For me to find the courage,

Not to walk away

If this is all that matters,

If this is all we know

If enlightenment is our journey,

It will never ever let us go

(Never let us go)

I hate the way you want me,

Passion in your eyes

I struggle and I reason,

This couldn't possibly be right

And I fight you with armour

And I fight you with fear

So afraid of what I would find out,

If I would let your heart come near

But I believe in redemption,

For a fool's domain

And I ask for forgiveness

I walk the line,

Between pleasure and pain

Between pleasure and pain

I walk the line,

Between pleasure and pain
