[Verse 1]
It seems like we
Like to be living dangerously
Our heart sings a temporary lie
It seems like her
Madness could be endlessly
Her love is a temporary high

[Pre-Chorus]
And you're running to the shore
Howling at the waves
Howling back at you (You, you, you)

[Chorus]
When you're ahead, she's coming after
And when you run, she's running faster
And when she loves you better hope her
Love is not a temporary high

[Verse 2]
Your body was warm
When she was cold
You would long for love
Her storm was a temporary light
And I guess you froze
When the storm blew away her clothes
And you never got warm again

[Pre-Chorus]
Your hands as blue as ice
You reached towards the sky
Reaching back at you (You, you, you)

[Chorus]
When you're ahead, she's coming after
And when you run, she's running faster
And when she loves you better hope her
Love is not a temporary high
(You, you, you)
And when you run, she's running faster
And when she loves you better hope her
Love is not a temporary high

[Pre-Chorus]
Your hands as blue as ice
You reached towards the sky
Reaching back at you (You, you, you)

[Chorus]
When you're ahead, she's coming after
And when you run, she's running faster
And when she loves you better hope her
Love is not a temporary high
(You, you, you)
And when you run, she's running faster
And when she loves you better hope her
Love is not a temporary high

[Outro]
(You better hope)
(That her love)
(Is not temporary)
(You better hope)
(That her love)
(Is not temporary)
