Everything Is Temporary

                                  Climbing up the stairs

And I'm stumbling but I don't care 

And I'm with you but I'm just not there

And I'm drifting through the sea

Evening closes in

And I don't know if its sink or swin

And I think about what might have been

But its just a memory



I wanted to hold you

There at the old hotel

When I'm not with you

I'm just an empty shell



Telephones will ring

And I guess I miss the simple things

In the winter waking up to spring

And you tell me you're alone

I was scared to fail

I was following a breadcrumb trail

And its pushing me beyond the pale

And I'm ready to go home



Accidents happen

Sometimes it feels like fate

Something between us 

Suddenly radiates



And in my secret heart

A revolution starts

The sun is burning through the clouds

Meet me on Sunday night

Wait for the northern lights

Everything is temporary now.



And the morning light comes crashing through

And you sing your resurrection blues 

And you harmonize with skeletons

But the melody is clear and true

And this used to be a children's game

And I don't know when but something changed

And I couldnt tell you what it was

But I know it doesn't feel the same.
