Well, I should have been home hours ago
I always lose track of the time
I'll just hold up this wall while I try to recall
A thought from the back of my mind

Oh yeah I remember, it began with a wink
When you caught me looking at you
So don't ask me if you can buy me a drink
I know what you're trying to do

Lead me not into temptation
I already know the road all too well
Lead me not into temptation
I can find it all by myself

I've the best of intentions, Lord, I mean to be good
And stick to the path I should go
But seems the harder I try, the further I slide
'Til I'm lost down that same dead end road

Now you're a good lookin' thing, and that must be the best
Proposition that I've had all day
But there's no need for subtlety, darlin', just get thee
Behind me and I'll show you the way

Lead me not into temptation
I already know the road all too well
Lead me not into temptation
I can find it all by myself
