temptation

You took it out of me
My strange indignity
What would you do with me
If I didn’t let you go
You took it out of me
My curiosity
But do you really wanna see
Everything you have to show?
You took it out of me
You know how much you meant to me

A lovely shiny day
The day you came to me
I do remember well
Your glance hardly hitting me
I lay in evergreen
And spoke to leaves and slugs
Your voice that tenderly
Made me at once forget where I was
You took it out of me
You gotta put it up to me

‘Cause you
noone but you
made me cry for you
you came around
after a single word
I  would have died for you
And you
Noone but youMade me follow you
I left my evergreen in holy spring
And came back to autum-leaves
You didn’t release me

And now I’m back
And still
Can’t get away from you
I can’t believe what
My holy garden changed into
I walk through autum-leaves
Where I met blooming trees
And that cruel silence
Seem to snear at me
In endless penalty
You took it out of me
Now give it back to me

‘Cause you
noone but you
made me cry for you
you came around
after a single word
I  would have died for you
And you
Noone but you
Made me follow you
I left my evergreen in holy spring
And came back to autum-leaves
You didn’t release
me
