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
