Lyrics
TEMPTATIONS DANCE
VERSE: Stars were out the woods were dark
The autumn chill took hold
The moon shone down on an eerie sight
That made my blood run cold
VERSE: I saw a crowd of people
gathered round
A woman all dressed in red
And the words that they were chanting Could have raised the dead
VERSE: Their voices had a keening sound
Like spirits mourning their fates
And I swear that I see Satan
Quietly slip through the gates
CHORUS:She danced a wild, wanton dance
Twirling round and round
Her eyes glittered like diamonds
Her feet never seemed to touch ground
Could not take my eyes off her
Could not............walk away
I could hear her voice calling
"Come closer, come closer, staY
VERSE:I cried aloud, love, come help me
Don't let her lead me astray
But the devil took my hand
He said, "come now, I'll show you the way"
VERSE: Then I heard your sweet voice calling
And my heart was torn in two
I awoke in the darkness
Bewitched by her, but loving you
CHORUS: She danced a wild, wanton dance
I could not turn away
I can still hear her voice calling
"Come closer, come closer, stay"
