temptation
Tane Cain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He's got the neon charm
He wants my number
He wants to slow me down
He's comin' on too strong now
Easy love has its price
A wolf disguised in blue jeans
Temptation
I can't keep it away
It finds me
Every time
Invitin'
With his wanderin' eyes
Temptation
He loves his money
He'd love to turn me on
He's got the limo
He lives in Babylon
A physical attraction
He uses it well
His game is satisfaction
He wants me under his spell
Temptation
I can't keep it away
It finds me
Every time
Invitin'
With his wanderin' eyes
Temptation
Can't be too careful
Don't wanna mess around
Temptation, don't bring me down
Temptation
I can't keep it away
It finds me
Every time
Invitin'
With his wanderin' eyes
Temptation
Temptation
I can't keep it away
It finds me
Every time
Invitin'
With his wanderin' eyes
Temptation

The song Temptation by Tane Cain is about the temptation that the singer faces from a man who is trying to seduce her. The man has a lot of money, charm and a fancy lifestyle. He tries to get her number and slow her down, but the singer is aware of his intentions and knows that every easy love has a price. She describes him as a "wolf disguised in blue jeans" and "physical attraction" and mentions that he uses his charm and money to attract women. However, she is careful and does not want to mess around with him, as she knows that temptation can bring her down. The chorus repeats the word "Temptation" four times, emphasizing the danger that the singer feels in this situation.
The lyrics of the song portray a woman who is strong and independent, and who is not easily swayed by the extravagance and charm of a man. The song highlights the importance of being cautious when dealing with temptations and making wise decisions.
