Temptations
Partynextdoor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Okay, but, uh, are you sure with my accent?
I just want to be alone with you
Is that fine?

Sexual healing
Oh what a feeling
Oh, oh, oh
Young and impatient for sweet sensations, yeah-yeah-yeah
Hey (you know baby, yeah you know)
I'm still up to something criminal
Stealing your piece of mind
Girl let me know

It's always something physical
I was seeing just one more time
I know you know it's mine
Oh were you

where were you when I need you, when I need you
When can I find you when I'm too low?
I can't let go
Girl, confess that you were lost (confess that you were lost)
You're looking to be found (you're looking to be found)
You're searching to be seen (you're searching to be seen)
You're anxious to believe (you're anxious to believe)
My love is natural (my love is natural)
It'll find you wherever you are (it'll find you wherever you are)
You're still number one (you're still number one) to me




Confess that you were lost
Feeling sensations

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to PARTYNEXTDOOR's song Temptations suggest that the singer desires a physical and intimate relationship with their lover. The opening line, "Okay, but, uh, are you sure I'm an example," shows the singer's hesitation and uncertainty about their partner's feelings towards them. Nonetheless, they express their desire to be alone with their lover, indicating a yearning for emotional and physical intimacy.


The chorus of the song emphasizes the physical nature of their relationship. The lyrics "Sexual healing, oh what a feeling" highlight the ecstatic feelings that come with intimacy. The singer also admits to being young and impatient for these "sweet sensations," which could indicate their need for instant gratification. Additionally, they confess to wanting something "criminal" by stealing their lover's peace of mind. These lyrics could reflect a toxic aspect of their relationship, where the singer is selfish or possessive.


The latter half of the song shifts to the singer's feelings of abandonment by their lover. They question where their partner is when they're in need, indicating a lack of emotional support. However, they still yearn for their lover's affection, asking them to confess if they were lost and searching for love. The final lyrics show that the singer believes their love will always find their partner, indicating that they are still devoted to their relationship.
