Very Temporary Lyrics - District Line - Bob Mould

If you want it to be, you've got to stand here by me 

But if you wanted to leave, go on and make yourself free 

If you want me to plead, you see me down on my knees 

You can do as you like, but do you know where it leads? 

When I wake from my sleep, outside my window I see 

A little robin that sings a little sonnet for me 

And every morning, I feel just like that bird in that tree 

I'd build a nest out of weeds, but would you share it with me? 

This is very temporary, but I can't do without having you around 

If it's very temporary, tell me now 

Just to please you I'd blow my brains out, this is it 

Cut my heart out with a razor now 

You're the one in my dreams, how can I make you believe 

It's all that I want, it's all that I want
