Emma Louise - Temporary Friend

Steady on my feet
for I am small
small enough to fit perfectly inside your arms

And did you really try and walk me home
Press me up against my car and kiss me down to my bones

But if we’re not in love
Then why do we pretend
And if time’s not enough
I’ll be your temporary friend
I’ll be your temporary friend
I’ll be your temporary friend for a while

And my mind, it feels you pressed against my skin
sends shivers down inside me
oh boy how did this begin

and underneath the stars … [?]
keeping my body warm, my belly pressed on yours

But if we’re not in love
Then why do we pretend
And if time’s not enough
I’ll be your temporary friend
I’ll be your temporary friend
I’ll be your temporary friend

For a while don’t leave me
For a while don’t leave me
For a while don’t leave me

But if we’re not in love
Then why do we pretend
And if time’s not enough
I’ll be your temporary friend
I’ll be your temporary friend
I’ll be your temporary friend for a while
