Temporary

i don't want to be
what you thought me up to be
if i can, i promise i'll break the mold

but that means i'll do things
that you don't approve
but don't give up and walk away

you know i'll always come running back to you

i'm far away, but it's just
temporary

and you don't want to be
reminiscing memories
you want to be creating them
and i do too

but i know that i'm gone (for now)
and that means i'll do things
without you
and i've got everything to prove

you know i'll always come running back to you

i'm far away, but it's just
temporary

this is just life happening
different than we thought
when we met all that time ago

yeah this is life happening
faster than before
this is just part of life

you know i'll always come running back to you

i'm far away, but this is just
temporary

i don't want to be
mad at you for things
that are out of my control

and you don't want to be
mad at me for things
when this is just life happening
