Saying No To Temptation Or Flirting With Disaster Poem by Harry J. Couchon Jr

I stared temptation right in the face
And I told her I'm sorry but no
When she said let's go back to my place
Because I couldn't bear to hurt you so

Yes I know I flirted a bit
With a woman I had never net before
That there was temptation I will admit
But it's you I always will adore

It began so very innocently
I was dining alone thinking of you
Suddenly this woman was smiling at me
The next thing I know I'm smiling too

She came over and sat at my table
And gave me a look that said it all
Could I resist? I hoped I'd be able
From the Eden of your love I never want to fall

We talked for a while and then she said
I never met a man like you before
Come home with me let's go to bed
O just sat there staring at the floor

I told her I'm flattered you asked me but no
My heart body and soul are spoken for
By a woman that I know really loves me so
Lucky woman she said and headed for the door

I sat there thinking what did I almost do?
Thrown away a once in a lifetime romance
By flirting with a woman the likes of who
Just wanted to get into my pants

That your love is so satisfying to me
Kept me from making one big mistake
Never will I flirt with any woman I see
Your love I can never forsake
