The Old Temptation Lyrics by Eric Bachmann

Eric Bachmann

2016

Did you fall for another
Trick along the way
Flick the lights to discover all
The soft manipulation

But you don't need them now
Not where you aim to go
Or where your devil's leading

And as you leave behind
The city's white glow
Flickers in your rear-view
Mirror like a dream

It took you time to recover
To never be the same
A cup of [?] and seltzer
To kill the old temptation

For all the love you leave
Along the wildly winding way
You choose to go
There's never any meaning

The way city lights all shine and glow
As you approach what you don't know
Makes you feel so alone
So alone
