It's time for me to be on my way, I know
I have business to conduct and I've got places to go
But I can't help looking at her sleeping instead
Another morning I'll have trouble climbing out of this bed

(Chorus)
But she's such a temptation and no one can save me
But I might find Salvation if I could tear myself away
I know what all of my friends say
there's a danger in wanting too much
But she's such a temptation

I look so tired because I don't get much sleep
I have too many committments that are too hard to keep
And I try to be rational and i try to be wise
But it all gets blown to pieces when i look in her eyes

(Chorus)

I should be leaving but I can't cut it loose
I have my reasons for resistance but I have no excuse
Why I lose my composure, why I can use some restraint
I never claimed to be a hero and i never said I was a saint

(Chorus)

Billy Joel, Temptation (inspired by and written for his baby daughter, after seeing her sleeping in her crib one morning)
