|
Like the hopeful dreams of many, he had everything and more,
|
A lovely wife and children, all the things worth fighting for.
|
He knows, there was still, still, something missing in his life.
|
Though he promised to be faithful, he was good at telling lies.
|
He had an eye for young girls, he would steal some on the side.
|
Oh no, he just could not be satisfied.
|
It's a game of all or nothing, there is nowhere safe to run,
|
Someone might just pull the trigger, cause temptation is a gun.
|
He met her at a night club, on the other side of town.
|
Somehow he could not resist her, she's the best he'd ever found.
|
She knows, she found her ticket to the other side.
|
It's a game of all or nothing, there is nowhere safe to run,
|
Someone might just pull the trigger, cause temptation is a gun.
|
His foolish ways seem harmless, but his world was so divine,
|
Cause at home they know his secrets, they've heard all his alibis.
|
As he tries to face his feelings, he can't justify his crimes,
|
Now comes the final ending, of the dreams he once held sacred deep inside.
|
He can kiss it all good-bye.
|
It's a game of all or nothing, there is nowhere safe to run,
|
Someone might just pull the trigger, cause temptation is a gun.
|
Oh, ummmm, ya baby, ahhhh temptation is a gun.
|
Temptation is a gun, All or nothing, all or nothing.
