Temporary World

A temporary lover A temporary girl Living temporary lives In this temporary world Watching tides roll out Seeing storms come and pass When nothing lasts forever And the moment wont last Moving through the mind games Shuffled like a pawn A taste of what you needed Already come and gone Yeah she came on like a breeze and left you hanging like a sheet It's a temporary setback It's a temporary thrill Like the seasons in the garden The weeds and the daffodils Watch the flowers rise up Watch the tiny petals fall And time just won't hold on To anything at all Looking in the mirror What you trying to prove? Don't you see the stranger Staring back at you I had my time Running hot and running blind And I'm still looking for that peace of mind Ain't no use in holding on Holding on It's a temporary glimpse And a taste of something more A temporary head rush Maybe you felt it once before? You were so much younger than But you're so much smarter now Are the signs passing too fast Have you forgotten how? And everybody tells you Take your curtain call But you insist to entertain The shadows on the wall Temporary losses And temporary gains And the deepest of all Stay running through your veins Mmm mmm we live temporary lives
