What have I done 
What did I say 
Am I the one 
You can not face 
When I need love 
I look to you 
But when I search I can not trace 
A beat of your heart, a shadow or shape 
Could it be me that learns to mistake temptation 
Temptation for love 

Why don't we try 
To talk it through 
And we may find 
Some common ground 
I realize 
That once again 
I search for what can not be found 
A beat of your heart, a shadow or shape 
Could it be me that learns to mistake temptation 
Temptation for love 

Is there a bond that we haven't found 
Now that you're gone I lie awake 
Now I've mistaken 

Words fail me now 
I fear the worst 
I let you down 
And can not face 
What I have done 
To you this time 
I called on you but couldn't trace 
A beat of your heart, a shadow or shape 
Could it be me that learns to mistake temptation 
Temptation for love
