Lyrics Refused On Temple St - Isidore, Steve Kilbey

Refused On Temple St

On Temple Street
Thinning crowds disperse among the dripping hedges
A little blurry at the edges
Up in your suite
Replete amid the juggled slumber never knew
Whose number could be up next
And you talk about our time together
And it seems so long ago
How’d you ever get to be so enchanting and so low?
I know
You’d better pack up and go
On Temple Street
The ambulance advances through the teeming night
So medical in rd and white
And at your feet
The servants bow and scrap seeking gratitude
As you adjust your altitude
And you talk about our time together
All the hours that you used
How’d you ever get to be so enchanting and so low?
I know
After all that you’ve refused
Beware the cinder that glows
It’s burning more than you suppose
On Temple Street
The morning starts in rain along the garden paths
Laughing in the aftermath
On Temple Street
Thinning crowds disperse among the dripping hedges
Little blurry at the edges
Temple Street
Temple Street
Temple Street
