Pleasure And Pain Lyrics - Dr. Hook

(S. Silverstein) 

Baby rest easy, don't jostle the bed 

Don't fool with that pillow that's under my head 

'Cause the warmth of your nearness is filling my brain 

With that sweet, sweet combination of pleasure and pain 

That sweet, sweet combination of pleasure and pain 

It'll fly you to heaven, it'll drive you insane 

First you set me on fire, then you put out the flame 

With that tender temptation, that simple sensation 

That sweet combination of pleasure and pain 

Stop rubbing my shoulder, stop curling my hair 

You're a witch of a woman, I'm too tired to care 

But I feel myself rising, and I just can't explain 

That sweet, sweet combination of pleasure and pain 

That sweet, sweet combination of pleasure and pain 

It'll fly you to heaven, it'll drive you insane 

First you set me on fire, then you put out the flame 

With that tender temptation, that simple sensation 

That sweet combination of pleasure and pain 

Pleasure and pain 

Pleasure and pain..........
