Taia Bohne - Temporary

I never knew I was so pessimistic
I never was, now I kinda miss it
When I took more videos 'cause I wasn't thinking of
How long it would be 'til I'd have to delete them
And I used to be comfortable there in the moment

Yeah, I used to be such a hopeless romantic
And hopeless is what I became
'Cause someone I loved broke my rose colored glasses
And now I just can't see the same

Now I look at young lovers and grieve
For an ending that they don't quite see
Coming just yet
It's all in their heads
Somebody tell them that it's temporary

Now I don't know whether I'm sorry or jealous
All their ignorance is to them right now is bliss
And they'll get their questions from skeptics like me
But they'll swear on their lives that its all meant to be
And I once was just like them but it ended in a mess

Yeah, I used to be such a hopeless romantic
And hopeless is what I became
'Cause someone I loved broke my rose colored glasses
And now I just can't see the same

Now I look at young lovers and grieve
For an ending that they don't quite see
Coming just yet
It's all in their heads
Somebody tell them that it's temporary
Well, maybe they'll break up like we did
Slamming car doors when they leave
Shattering hearts
And leaving new scars
If only they'd see that it's temporary

When you're that young
You can't see past high school
And when you're in love you'll hang on with your life
And when I was younger
All I could see was you
And I could've sworn I'd turn into your wife
We'd talk on those 2am calls
And the later it'd get the harder I'd fall
Then I broke when I hit the ground
You weren't there to witness the sound

And now I look at your pictures and grieve
For the ending that we should have seen
Coming but we were only 16
We couldn't believe it was temporary

I hope they don't break up like we did
Slamming car doors when they leave
Shattering hearts
And leaving new scars
If only they'd see that it's temporary

I hope that they see that it's temporary
I wish that we'd seen it was temporary
