You came, I was alone
I should have known you were temptation
You smiled, luring me on
My heart was gone, and you were temptation
It would be thrilling
If you were willing
If it can never be
Pity me
For you smiled luring me on
My heart was gone, for you were temptation and I am yours
Here is my heart, take it and say that we'll never part
I'm just a slave, only a slave, to you, to you, to you, to you
I should have known you were temptation
You smiled, luring me on
My heart was gone, and you were temptation
It would be thrilling
If you were willing
If it can never be
Pity me
For you smiled luring me on
My heart was gone, for you were temptation and I am yours
Here is my heart, take it and say that we'll never part
I'm just a slave, only a slave, to you, to you, to you, to you
