Goodbye Tempter - Original by Amy Benjamin

This is a little song I wrote, again when I was 19 and first starting out.

It's a very simple song. Not a radio hit. I just like to sing it sometimes, and I've had it on my mind the last couple of days.

This is just a webcam recording. I didn't have Daniel do the sound. I hope you still enjoy it.


"Goodbye Tempter"

Goodbye Tempter
The suitcase full
I'm taking off with love
I can't take you along
And still

Goodbye Tempter
Where I'll leave you
is 5 steps from my heart
That's a continent from love

My strength is not my will
Can't you see
I love him still

So please
Goodbye now
Don't look back
I can't trust myself with that
So please
Goodbye's the only way
That's why you can't stay
Stay, stay

Goodbye Tempter
The days are long again
And hopes my only friend
My friend

Goodbye Tempter
They've taken you from me
They need me to be free

My strength...

So please....

Perhaps you arrived
Behind closed eyes
I couldn't push you away
I'd ask you to stay
Stay
