Temptations
Daniel Di Angelo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've got a girl at home
She thinks I'm on my own
She thinks I'm writing music but really I'm not alone
I see you two times a week
When I shouldn't be at all
And no I don't ever cheat so
Please try to keep your knees closed girl cause
I've got all these temptations
Temptations
I've got all these temptations
Temptations
Temptations

I'm cruisin' the streets with the baddest bitches in LA and
My baby thinks that I'm in the caymans
I'm a good guy making mistakes that
I never even go through all the way with
Maybe its not my fault
Maybe its just my nature
Maybe I drink too much
Maybe I need a chaser
I'm doing the dance with a girl that I'd never even kiss on the lips
Girl I gotta cut this off, girl it is what it is
Yea you're saucy, lips poppin' and glossy
But I gotta stop fuckin' with you and your posse
You say that you don't want to see me no more
I don't think I'll ever see you no more
But I'm only gonna tell you one thing
I don't need your love baby

Temptations
Temptations
I don't need your temptations
Temptations

I've got a bad bitch and I'm calling her
She's far from average and I wanted to see her do damage on her own
Says she's not lonely, just alone
I wont have someone to go home to if I don't fix this mess on my own
I wont be salvaged if I'm wrong
Baby I want you to rescue my soul
Cause I know you're perfect
I don't think that I deserve it
I want you to know that I cried all night, all of my feelings just surfaced
And baby I think that it's fine to
Tell you that I always loved you
You don't have to say it back right now I know you're hurting from my truth
And all of my goddamn temptations

Temptations
I don't want no temptations
