Discover the story of the song > Palaces of Montezuma – Grinderman

The song talks about a person, referred to as 'he', who is offering their partner, referred to as 'she', various gifts and experiences such as the hanging gardens of Babylon, the epic of Gilgamesh and Miles Davis. They ask for their partner's love in return and declare their willingness to give everything without asking anything in return except for a simple word from their partner. The chorus urges the partner to come out of the cold and give their love for the protagonist to hold.
