This is just a temporary love song.
By “temporary,” yes, I mean the love.
The song will stay the same
when she takes someone else’s name.
I know I’m not the one she’s dreaming of.
This is just another brief distraction
from the tired and the lonely and the blue.
We’ll keep our minds away
from the things we never say,
like, “I know I won’t be growing old with you.”
You don’t have to tell me that you love me.
If you did, I never would believe,
because you can’t tell a lie;
I can see it in your eye.
Do you really think that I’d be that naive?
This is just a temporary love song.
By “temporary,” yes, I mean the love.
The song will stay the same
when I give someone else my name.
I know you're not the one I’m dreaming of.
