Little Piece of Paradise

©2011 David Moody

When the emptiness is spilling over
With the secrets everybody knows
Then you tempt me again
Like a long - lost friend
And now, just another weakness shows

I’m so tempted – let me think it over
Aw, hell I might as well just go ahead
I don’t know why I’m
In your grand design
If it were mine, I’d play some music instead

I don’t make any rules
But like the rest of the fools,
I play the game
I won’t break any rules
But I can bend ‘em - got the tools
So lay your blame

‘Cause I’m so tempted
You’re lookin’ so good
And right here in my neighborhood
I think I feel my property value going up

And I’m so tempted
And I sure wish you could
And then maybe you would
You’re so sweet, so fine, and so friggin’ nice
My little piece of paradise
