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 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 With 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
