I was oh so nearly tempted into your bed It'd all gone so far, the idea had run through your head But I came back home anyway, the next day The dew was still fresh on my shoes that lay by the door As I lay down flat in the hall and whispered to you That I'm not going to lie anymore As we talked I grew old, this is not where I thought we would be To pay back in kind what I owe will cost all I own So please don't cry anymore For the love that will guide you back home I was oh so nearly tempted into your bed
