Temptress

She is gorgeous, she is beautiful, she's an image from a dream 
She will take your heart, she will stop its beat, she will even make you scream 
You think you're the lucky one, you think that she loves you 
Man have I got news for you; you're just another screw 
I felt her allure, tasted her power 
Now that I am done, I still long for her 

You are drawn to her eyes 
Like a fish drawn to bait 
Her catch is just as piercing 
When she hooks your soul to you fate 

She touches you so gently 
She makes you feel so weak 
You'll think you have the power 
When her plan has reached its peak 

One kiss to your lips and your soul belongs to her 
Her body's her one weapon 
There's no need to go further 

So you think that she's evil, so you think she's bad 
But even she has been weak, even she has been sad 
Falling in love was never a part of her game 
But when it happened with me the temptress was tamed 

I loved her then and our love was pure 
No more games, no more plans, no more allure 
She gave me her soul, she gave me a lot 
She gave me a vow that we couldn't part 
But we couldn't be together 
                                        She never gave me her heart 

She was afraid I'd leave her when I see her true colours 
But I knew her more than she knew, unlike the others 
With all her insecurity, she caused me so much pain 
In the end I had to leave her, and then she lost the game 

In her game of manipulation, with all those other men 
She has won every time without a scruple in her head 
But her love for me was not any game 
And sadly she didn't know what to do            
So she played it just the same 

That's why you'll never have her; that's why you're just a screw 
Unless she falls in love with you, then you'll lose her too 
But that will never happen, 'cos she's the temptress of your heart 
And her lustful game of manipulation is her greatest art 

Why I will always love her, I'm sure you will never know 
Maybe I'm just like her.  Maybe?  But it'll never show 
My love for her will transcend through all time 
Regardless of fate, she'll always be mine 

The temptress will never love, the temptress will never change 
The temptress won't be lonely, despite her self-imposed cage 
You will always be a victim, a victim of her rage 
And when your hearts chapter is over, she'll just turn the page 

She is gorgeous, she is beautiful, she's an image from a dream 

She will take your heart, she will stop its beat, she will even make you scream
