Squeeze - Temptation For Love lyrics

(Difford/Tilbrook)

What have I done

What did I say

Am I the one

You can not face

When I need love

I look to you

But when I search I can not trace

A beat of your heart, a shadow or shape

Could it be me that learns to mistake temptation

Temptation for love

Why don't we try

To talk it through

And we may find

Some common ground

I realize

That once again

I search for what can not be found

A beat of your heart, a shadow or shape

Could it be me that learns to mistake temptation

Temptation for love

Is there a bond that we haven't found

Now that you're gone I lie awake

Now I've mistaken

Words fail me now

I fear the worst

I let you down

And can not face

What I have done

To you this time

I called on you but couldn't trace

A beat of your heart, a shadow or shape

Could it be me that learns to mistake temptation

Temptation for love
