Jeremy Crowe - Temporary Lyrics

Sometimes life won't go as you expect it
Sometimes someone you know will disappear
The hopes and dreams, the finer things
The laughs that made life everything
Can change from picture perfect to unclear
With closed doors it's difficult
To see what's going on
When American divorce is on the run
You can't get made when it gets tragic
It's just two people losing magic
But them it happened all so fast
And I remember when
I once said

When I grow older I want to be them
When I get married I want to be him
When I have children I want to treat them
Like she does
But as we move on
And life gets scary
And you realize that role models
Are only temporary
Yea they're only temporary

Found your heart not in the right place
No you weren't happy with yourself
Played it cool and kept your distance
To wander off with someone else
I don't blame you, it gets hard to
Plant your roots on poisoned ground
Just remember what I thought from then and now

When I grow older I want to be them
When I get married I want to be him
When I have children I want to treat them
Like she does
But as we move on
And life gets scary
When you realize that role models
Are only temporary

Yea they're only temporary
But there's still good in both their hearts
I still look up to what they had
And who they are

When I grow older I want to be them
When I get married I want to be him
When I have children I want to treat them
Like she does
But as we move on
And life gets scary
When you realize that role models
Are only, only

When I grow older I want to be them
When I get married I want to be him
When I have children I want to treat them
Like she does
But as we move on
And life gets scary
When you realize that role models
Are only temporary
