[Verse 1]

I can't hold my tongue even if I try

You found me out, now I'm exposed

I've been moving slow, tryna keep control

Seen many come and go


[Pre-Chorus 1]

Does it exist? Does love even exist?

Does it even feel the way the people say that it feels?

Does it even exist? What is this? What is this?

I don't even know if what I see is real


[Chorus]

Don't want your love if it's temporary

All I've seen in love is temporary

I just don't know

I feel some things on the low

I feel some things I don't show, for sure

If your love is temporary


[Verse 2]

I've been tryna break down my guard, not shut people out

But every time I let them in, they let me down

Tired of saying: "At least I tried"

This time I will fight

This isn't worth losing my mind


[Pre-Chorus 2]

Does it exist? Does love even exist?

I don't believe it feels the way they say that it feels

Does it even exist? What is this? What is this?

I don't even know if what I see is real


[Chorus]

Don't want your love if it's temporary

All I've seen in love, it's temporary

I just don't know

I feel some things on the low

I feel some things I don't show for sure

If your love is temporary, temporary


[Outro]

Put everything on the front, love

Will you put everything on the front, love?

Will you put everything— (Temporary)

Put everything on the front, love

Will you put everything on the front, love?

Will you put everything— (Temporary)

Give everything up except love

Will you give everything up except love?

Will you give— (Temporary)

Give everything up except love

Will you give everything up except love?

Will you give— (Temporary)

No, no (Temporary)

Ooh (Temporary)
