Met a dancer
From Brooklyn
Tied up in her sheets
She's got a temper
For reasons hard to believe
We'll leave out all the sinners
All the losers and the winners
The scars that have torn us apart
Met down by the drugstore
Empty warehouse by the corner
Here's where you let go of my heart
Cause I know that you're being polite
When you call me up and you say that "it's over"
Then you'll probably crave through the night
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers
An eviction notice
With no one a part of the scene
Cut the phone line
Packed up bags
Now we're hitting the streets
We'll shut up all the haters
All the beggars and the strangers
The wounds that set us apart
Neon shines down by the diner
Cold reflections from our neighbors
Signs that ignite the spark
Cause I know that you're being polite
When you call me up and you say that "it's over"
Then you'll probably crave through the night
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers (Temporary lovers)
Temporary lovers (Temporary lovers)
We'll dance to the beat of a drum
For all missing time
Until you're gone
You're just synthetic
It's all in my head
Till someday
You're back again
Cause I know that you're being polite
When you call me up and you say that "it's over"
Then you'll probably crave through the night
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers
And the silence it drains like the sun
I know I'm not the only
No I'm not the only one
You then apologize
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers (Lovers)
Temporary lovers
(Lovers)
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers
Temporary lovers
