Refusing Temptation Lyrics

Why am I refusing temptation when it's all around me?
It would be so easy to say yes
But I never say yes, I just float here like ice
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e89932-rhett_miller~refusing_temptation_lyrics.html ]
Why do I continue to phone you when it's so apparent?
Those drinks that your pouring won't make you forget
That you and I met once or twice

In my dream I will remember you loving me
Oh, but in real life this is not over

Why do I persist and resist in what is really happening
You and I could be happy sleeping right here
But you won't be here, you are telling me twice

In my dream I will remember you loving me
Oh, but in real life this is not over
In my dream I will remember you loving me
Oh, but in real life this is not over

Why am I refusing temptation when it's all around me?
It would be so easy to say yes
But I never say yes, I just float here like ice

In my dream I will remember you loving me
Oh, but in real life this is not over
In my dream I will remember you loving me
Oh, but in real life this is not over

In my dream I will remember you loving me
Oh, but in real life this is not over

Why am I refusing temptation?
