I saw it black and white
I guess I'm colorblind
You didn't see it like that
I thought I got you right
I make mistakes sometimes
You know you taught me that
That I can do much better
What ever happened to forever

I, I guess our love was temporary
You were the one, I was one of many
I woulda stayed till we're dead and buried
But ooh, not you
I guess that I was a weight to carry
Holding you down while you held me steady
I woulda stayed till we're dead and buried
But ooh, not you
(But ooh, not you)

I thought we'd have more time
But I guess the time was up
Swear I read that wrong
I felt you slipping in between my fingertips and I held on
And I'm still holding on

I guess our love was temporary
You were the one, I was one of many
I woulda stayed till we're dead and buried
But ooh, not you
I guess that I was a weight to carry
Holding you down while you held me steady
I woulda stayed till we're dead and buried
But ooh, not you

I'm still holding on
To someone so far gone
I, I tried
Seasons come and go
But you swore that you won
You lie

That I can do much better
What ever happened to forever

I guess the love was temporary
You were the one, I was one of many
I woulda stayed till we're dead and buried
But ooh, not you
