Sweet Temptation

Sweet temptation that's what you are to me

That's all you'll always be it seems

Sweet temptation, you smile and pass me by

But still you occupy my dreams

Now maybe I've got lots of hidden charms

You'd find it if you just hold me in your arms

But you're just sweet temptation, a diamond in the rough

You make it, oh, so tough for me

Sweet temptation, so most delicious peach

It's always out of reach they say

Sweet temptation, you're just a little flirt

You know you might get hurt that way

Now someday you may make a big surprise

By someone who will make you realize

That you're just sweet temptation, a diamond in the rough

You make it, oh, so tough for me
