[Verse 1: Glenn Gregory]
I've never been closer
I've tried to understand
That certain feeling
Carved by another's hand, no

[Verse 2: Glenn Gregory]
But it's too late
To hesitate
We can't keep on
Living like this

[Pre-Chorus: Glenn Gregory]
Leave no track
Don't look back!

[Chorus: Carol Kenyon & Glenn Gregory]
All I desire
Temptation
Keep climbing higher and higher
Temptation
Adorable creatures
Temptation
With unacceptable features
Temptation
Trouble is coming
Temptation
It's just the high cost of loving
Temptation
You can take it or leave it
Temptation
But you'd better believe it
[Verse 3: Glenn Gregory]
You've got to make me an offer
That cannot be ignored
So, let's head for home now!
Everything I have is yours

[Verse 4: Glenn Gregory]
Step by step
And day by day
Every second counts
I can't break away!

[Pre-Chorus: Glenn Gregory]
Leave no trace
Hide your face

[Chorus: Carol Kenyon & Glenn Gregory]
All I desire
Temptation
Keep climbing higher and higher
Temptation
You can take it or leave it
Temptation
But you'd better believe it

[Verse 5: Carol Kenyon]
Step by step
And day by day
Every second counts
I can't break away!
[Bridge: Glenn Gregory & (Carol Kenyon)]
Keep us from temptation (oh)
Keep us from temptation
Keep us from temptation
Lead us not into temptation, oh

[Chorus: Carol Kenyon & Glenn Gregory]
Trying to find it
Temptation
You've got to get up behind it
Temptation
Put your dime in the hot slot
Temptation
But it's a million to one shot
Temptation
You think that you're right now!
Temptation
You're going to fake it tonight now!
Temptation
Give me a breakdown!
Temptation
Because it's time for a shakedown!

[Post-Chorus: Glenn Gregory]
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
[Outro: Glenn Gregory]
It's just a temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
Temptation
