Temporary lives, temporary love
Temporary lives, that's what we have
When I look into your eyes I see a reflection
The image is of one that belongs to me
I see the eyes of a hurting man
Trying to find out where I stand
You tell me that you love me
And then you tell me that you don't
A love that is uncertain isn't love at all
A love that's built on lies is guaranteed to fall
And all my love's invested in you
But tell me, is our love even true
If love is temporary, it's like a house made out of sand
Temporary lives, temporary love
Temporary lives, that's what we have
The angels, the angels confess against you
While I do my best to impress you
Temporary lives, temporary love
Temporary lives, that's what we have
Temporary lives, temporary love
Temporary lives, that's what we have
When I look into your eyes I see a reflection
The image is of one that belongs to me
I see the eyes of a hurting man
Trying to find out where I stand
You tell me that you love me
And then you tell me that you don't
Temporary lives, temporary love
Temporary lives, that's what we have
Temporary lives, temporary love
Temporary lives, that's what we have
Temporary lives, temporary love
Temporary lives, that's what we have
