Temptation
Zander Bleck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All this temptation:
It turns me on.
Life is a playground,
It's hard to stay strong.
All this temptation:
Can it be wrong?
It's pushing and pulling,
But it turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.

I thought
That I knew what I wanted to say
But the feelings all around me
Change
When
I get
Closer
To you
I thought
I could find a better way
Just getting past the games we
Play
Together
We're so
Clever
(How can I resist?)

All this temptation:
It turns me on.
Life is a playground,
It's hard to stay strong.
All this temptation:
Can it be wrong?
It's pushing and pulling,
But it turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.

How
How am I supposed to resist
All the lovely things that exist
Out
There?
It's
So
Unfair.
Tell me why,
Why I should behave around you
When it's obvious that you want it, too.
So
Let's just
Stop
Pretending.
How can I resist?

All this temptation:
It turns me on.
Life is a playground,
It's hard to stay strong.
All this temptation:
Can it be wrong?
It's pushing and pulling,
But it turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.

I'm about to lose my mind.
I don't know where to draw the line.
And I don't even wanna try
To justify
The reasons why
It makes me feel
So
Alive.

All this temptation:
It turns me on.
Life is a playground,
It's hard to stay strong.
All this temptation:
Can it be wrong?
It's pushing and pulling,
But it turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.
All this temptation:
It turns me on.
Life is a playground,
It's hard to stay strong.
All this temptation:
Can it be wrong?
It's pushing and pulling,
But it turns me on.
It turns me on,
It turns me on,
It turns me on.
It turns me on,




It turns me on,
It turns me on.

Amazing video and incredible song.Can't wait for the whole album to come out. Zander is going to kill it this year.

Mr. Léon

Incredible. Blew me away. If this is just the first track, then I can't even wait until the record comes out. Zander has such a refreshing concept of what it means to be an artist. The days of mindless pop garbage may not be seeing their demise anytime soon, but it certainly doesn't mean that we live in a world where true artistry doesn't exist. Love it! Can't wait to see what Zander has for us next!

Zander Bleck

Amazing! thank you all for the love! this is just the beginning -Z
