Kings of Leon - Temple Lyrics

Ah, the intoxicating dance of love and longing! "Temple" spins a tale of a man desperate to be noticed by the object of his affection. Amidst the chaos of the dance floor, he's just another face in the crowd, his hands buried deep in his pockets. Yet, he's… Read more

Temple Lyrics

The dance floor's a temptress
Can't make out what your saying

But you rub me the right way
With your child-like persuasion

I got my hands in my pockets
And I'm crossing my fingers
She'll find I'm a simple
Stone washed up and so slow

I'd take one in the temple
I'd take one for you
I'd take one in the temple (temple)
I'd take one for you
I'd take one in the temple (temple)
I'd take one for you

I feel all amiss now
I'm tossed in the scatter
And your eyes keep on shifting,
To the boys that don't matter
I've got my hands in my pockets
I'm still crossing my fingers

I'd take one in the temple
I'd take one for you
I'd take one in the temple (temple)
I'd take one for you
I'd take one in the temple (temple)
I'd take one for you

I've got my hands in my pockets
And I'm crossing my fingers
I just want to be noticed
I just want to be noticed

I'd take one in the temple (temple)
I'd take one for you
I'd take one in the temple (temple)
I'd take one for you
I'd take one in the temple
I'd take one for you oh
I'd take one in the temple (temple)
I'd take one for you

What is the Meaning of Temple?

Ah, the intoxicating dance of love and longing! "Temple" spins a tale of a man desperate to be noticed by the object of his affection. Amidst the chaos of the dance floor, he's just another face in the crowd, his hands buried deep in his pockets. Yet, he's willing to take a metaphorical bullet for her - hence 'taking one in the temple'. It's a poetic way of saying he'd do anything to win her heart. This song is all about unrequited love and the lengths one would go to be seen by their beloved. So next time you're on that dance floor, remember - there might be someone crossing their fingers for your attention! 💔
