Temptation Took Control of Me and I Fell
I've been lost before
Searching for the light so long
I can't take much more
Yet, the road of love seems endless to me
And the rest, you all know well
Well, temptation took control of me
And I fell (and I fell, I fell)
And I fell, and I fell
Then I started to stumble
And I cried, "This can't be true"
Got a mighty long road to tread on at night
Just to get up on to you
Oh, I walked to the left (walked to the left)
And I walked to the right
Though I could not find my way-ay-ay-ay
I cried myself to sleep at night
And start again by day
I've been lost before
Searching for the light so long
I can't take much more
But the road of love seems endless to me
And the rest, you all know well
Well, temptation took control of me
And I fell (and I fell, I fell)
And I fell, I fell
I cried out in desperation
Please forgive me for my evil ways
But I can't refuse your invitation
And I'm coming on home to you
This unsweet day
Oh
I've been lost before
Searching for the light so long
I can't take much more
But the road of love seems endless to me
And the rest, you all know well
Well, temptation took control of me
And I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Yes, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Oh, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Yes, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Oh, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Yes, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Oh, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Oh, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Searching for the light so long
I can't take much more
Yet, the road of love seems endless to me
And the rest, you all know well
Well, temptation took control of me
And I fell (and I fell, I fell)
And I fell, and I fell
Then I started to stumble
And I cried, "This can't be true"
Got a mighty long road to tread on at night
Just to get up on to you
Oh, I walked to the left (walked to the left)
And I walked to the right
Though I could not find my way-ay-ay-ay
I cried myself to sleep at night
And start again by day
I've been lost before
Searching for the light so long
I can't take much more
But the road of love seems endless to me
And the rest, you all know well
Well, temptation took control of me
And I fell (and I fell, I fell)
And I fell, I fell
I cried out in desperation
Please forgive me for my evil ways
But I can't refuse your invitation
And I'm coming on home to you
This unsweet day
Oh
I've been lost before
Searching for the light so long
I can't take much more
But the road of love seems endless to me
And the rest, you all know well
Well, temptation took control of me
And I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Yes, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Oh, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Yes, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Oh, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Yes, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Oh, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
I fell (and I fell, I fell)
Oh, I fell (and I fell, I fell)
