about

"I Can't Resist" was inspired by a visit to the Museum of Sex.

www.museumofsex.com

This is the third installment of a new song project: Exhibit.

Every Tuesday for 8 weeks I will spend time in a New York City museum. Within one week's time, I will compose and record a song inspired by the visit.

lyrics

I CAN'T RESIST

Time has told me there's not enough of it
for me to make a comprehensive list
of the things you do that make me lose my grip

Whether you are wearing shirts and pants

If you were the army I'd be the first one to enlist
I can't resist

I try hard to remain in control
but I cannot be held accountable
for those things you do that cut me to my soul

Like when I catch you reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
I can't resist
