Universe - We Are Temporary

I’m a deer in the headlights, a parasite

I’m sorry I love you when I have no right

Your love is an easy thing to forsake

How much do you offer?

How much can I take?

But even apart, I could never shake you

Somehow for me to love was to break you

I'm a shell of a man in the skin of a ghost

I gave you up when I needed you most

And then right before our time is up

You give me just a few more minutes to try

And when you call out and light my heart

We are the center of the universe

And we are the summer and we are the sun

Our future’s always been part of our song

And baby, I love you, and I want you to know

You are the center of my universe

I'm damaged goods, I’m good to discard

I'm sorry for making your life so hard

You know where to find me, you know where I hide

You're the only one out there who ever tried

Our light is my cause, my way, my reserve

A second chance I would never deserve

We’re stronger together, we’ve braved the worst

Now the time has come for me to put our love first

And then right before our time is up

You give me just a few more minutes to try

And when you call out and light my heart

We are the center of the universe

And we are the summer, we are the sun

Our future’s always been part of our song

And Baby, I love you, and I want you to know

You are my universe
