lyrics

[Verse 1]
What have you done to me?
I promised myself that you were just temporary company
But I've been acting strange, so
Let me explain myself
No it wasn't in my intention to feel this way

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't wanna ruin what we got going
Cause I'd take what I can rather than having nothing
I hope you understand where I'm coming from
I just need to get it off my chest
[?] to rest so, here goes

[Chorus]
I wanna be, I wanna be
More than temporary
I wanna be, I wanna be
More than ordinary
I wanna be, I wanna be
More than temporary
I wanna be, I just wanna be more

[Verse 2]
You should [?] up to
Why do you keep holding back when you know you could be close to me?
We drew a line but sometimes the line gets blurry
And if honesty is our policy, then just hear me out
Just hear me out

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause I don't wanna ruin what we got going
And I'd take what I can rather than having nothing
I hope you understand where I'm coming from, my chest
Need to get it off my chest
Need to lay it all to rest so, here goes

We're cut from the same cloth
Both too afraid to let it go
Both too afraid to let it show
But if I go first will you follow?
But if I jump first willl you follow?
Cause I just need to know your heart

[Chorus]
I wanna be, I wanna be
More than temporary (wanna be)
I wanna be, I wanna be
More than ordinary (wanna be)
I wanna be, I wanna be
More than temporary (I just wanna be)
I wanna be, I just wanna be more

I wanna be, I wanna be
More than temporary
I wanna be, I wanna be
More than ordinary (I wanna be)
I wanna be, I wanna be
More than temporary
I wanna be, I just wanna be more
