Lyrics Missy Higgins

Missy Higgins

Temporary Love

You’re doing something

Something to my heart

Some kind of motion

that’s pulling it apart

Cos I live on the other side

of the sea

This is temporary, temporary love

Only temporary, temporary love

But something’s moving

in places I’d forgotten

The knives you’re throwing

keep hitting the right spot

I keep on trying to tell my, trying to tell myself

This is temporary, temporary love

Only temporary, temporary love

This is temporary

Gotta keep reminding myself that

This is temporary love (let the love in, let the love in)

Yeah this is one sweet moment

but it ain’t going to last

You’re doing something

underneath my skin

I never meant to

let you so far in

I keep on trying to tell myself

This is temporary, temporary love

Only temporary, temporary love

This is temporary, temporary love

Only temporary, temporary love

Gotta keep reminding myself that

this is one sweet moment

but it ain’t going to last…
