Temporary Road

Hello, goodbye
It seems we’ve just arrived
We settle in, then have to go
It seems too cruel, I guess the joke’s on us
We get this gift, then have to give it up
The letting go, yeah that’s the hardest part
What lies ahead are all the broken hearts

It’s a Temporary Road
That washes out I know
It’s a Temporary Road
But I got to spend some time with you
And learn the universe is huge
But all of it will end with time

When times are good
The days go by so fast
We soak it in and hope it lasts
Then when it’s dark
It seems forever then
Until the light comes shining back again

It’s a Temporary Road
That washes out I know
It’s a Temporary Road
Where it leads, who knows?

But I gotta spend some time with you
And feel the things that love can do
And walk along the countryside
And be the miracle of life
And learn to play a simple tune
When everything was looking blue
I got to chase some silly dreams
And learn just what forgiveness means
And hear the laughter of a child
And feel the joy of your sweet smile
I wish I could go on and on
But all of it will end with time

Hello, goodbye
It seems we just arrived
We settle in
Then have to go
