- Thieves In The Temple LyricsLove come quick
Love come in a hurry
There are thieves in the temple tonight
They don't care where they kick
Just as long as they hurt u
There are thieves in the temple tonight
Love if u're there come save me
From all this cold despair
I can hang when u're around
But I'll surely die
If u're not there
Love come quick
Love come in a hurry
There are thieves in the temple tonight
I feel like I'm looking for my soul
(Soul)
Like a poor man looking for gold
(Gold)
There are thieves in the temple tonight
Voices from the sky say rely on your best friend to pull u through
But even if I wanted 2 I couldn't really truely
'cause my only friend is u
Come on
There are thieves in the temple tonight
Kicking me in my heart, tearing me all apart
(Tearing me, tearing me, tearing me all apart)
'Cause me and u could have been a work of art
Thieves in the temple
Baby don't u know I'm holding on
The best that I can
Love please help me be
The better man
Better than the thieves in the temple
In the temple tonight
Oh, thieves in the temple (Tonight) tonight
Hurt me
Love come quick
Love come in a hurry
There are thieves in the temple tonight
Thieves in the temple
U said u loved me!
(Thieves in the temple)
U said I was your friend!
(Thieves in the temple)
U were supposed to take care of me!
(Love come quick) {Thieves in the temple}
U lie! Love come (Lie!) in a hurry
(Lie!)
Thieves in the temple tonight
Love come in a hurry
There are thieves in the temple tonight
They don't care where they kick
Just as long as they hurt u
There are thieves in the temple tonight
Love if u're there come save me
From all this cold despair
I can hang when u're around
But I'll surely die
If u're not there
Love come quick
Love come in a hurry
There are thieves in the temple tonight
I feel like I'm looking for my soul
(Soul)
Like a poor man looking for gold
(Gold)
There are thieves in the temple tonight
Voices from the sky say rely on your best friend to pull u through
But even if I wanted 2 I couldn't really truely
'cause my only friend is u
Come on
There are thieves in the temple tonight
Kicking me in my heart, tearing me all apart
'Cause me and u could have been a work of art
Thieves in the temple
Baby don't u know I'm holding on
The best that I can
Love please help me be
The better man
Better than the thieves in the temple
In the temple tonight
