Temptation

Have you noticed nobody can come up with the full lyrics of Temptation?

I just been checking the lyrics from the official song book and they doesn't match any of the version of the song.. some part are from the original, some part are from the 1987 version, and some parts and not at all in those..

And the 1998 version (on the DVD) have different lyrics also.

So here's my take at the 1987 version, it may sound weird in some places, but it's what's written in the song book, plus some corrections that I did

(For example, in the 1982 version, the line is "Just Like A Feeling I Need It's No Joke", in 1997 it's "Just Like A Feeling Inside It's No Joke")

Heaven, a gateway of hopeJust like a feeling inside, it's no jokeAnd though it hurts me to treat you this wayYou treat my words, I never heard, too hard to sayUp, down, turn aroundPlease don't let me hit the groundTonight I think I'll walk aloneI'll find my soul as I go homeUp, down, turn aroundPlease don't let me hit the groundTonight I think I'll walk aloneI'll find my soul as I go homeEach way I turn, I know I'll always tryTo break this circle that's been placed around meFrom time to time, I find I've lost some needAnd what's emerging to myself, I do believeUp, down, turn aroundPlease don't let me hit the groundTonight I think I'll walk aloneI'll find my soul as I go homeUp, down, turn aroundPlease don't let me hit the groundTonight I think I'll walk aloneI'll find my soul as I go homeOh, you've got green eyesOh, you've got blue eyesOh, you've got grey eyesOh, you've got green eyesOh, you've got blue eyesOh, you've got grey eyesAnd I've never seen anyone quite like you beforeNo, I've never met anyone quite like you beforeBolts from above hit the people down belowPeople in this world without no place to goBolts from above hit the people down belowPeople in this world we have no place to goBolts from above hit the people down belowPeople in this world we have no place to goBolts from above hit the people down belowPeople in this world we have no place to goOh, it's the last timeOh, it's the last timeOh, it's the last timeOh, it's the last timeOh, it's the last timeOh, I've never met anyone quite like you beforeOh no, I've never met anyone quite like you before

It's well written in the 1989 song book "Heaven, a gateway of hope".... !

And emerging is also from the music book!

Is the music book not good?

Like I said, I saw some difference between versions of Temptation...!

the actual lyrics are...............

In heaven, I gave away a hope

Not QUITE, I'm afraid...

For me, that question has been solved a long time ago. Here's my own interpretation of the lyrics:

A heaven, a gateway A hope Just like a feeling inside It's no joke

And though it hurts me To treat you this way Betrayed by words I've never heard Too hard to say

Up, down Turn around Please don't let me hit the ground Tonight I think I'll walk alone I'll find my soul as I go home (repeat)

Houuuu hou hou hou hou Hou hou hou hou hou Whouuuu hou hou Whou hou hou

Each way I turn I know I always try To break this circle that's been placed Around me

From time to time I find, I've lost Some meaning But what's emerging to myself I do believe

Up, down Turn around Please don't let me hit the ground Tonight I think I'll walk alone I'll find my soul as I go home

Oh you've got green eyes Oh you've got blue eyes Oh you've got grey eyes (repeat)

And I've never met anyone Quite like you before No I've never met anyone Quite like you before

(repeat chorus)
