lyrics

I’ll never be the keeper, I’m a temporary heart pleaser baby. I know I’m not your keeper I am temporary. Here we are
again, hearts back out on the market, you look a bit concerned. ‘Cause the risks are grave but the win is great in your warm embrace, and I’ll
behave if you don’t berate my childish ways. It’s been a while since you’ve been willing to trust anyone, but I’m here with good intentions,
so put away the guns. Oh you messed up thinking this was just one night, you tripped into me, staring in my big blue eyes and that fear
you see well it’s no big surprise. Chorus. Here we are again, bottle deep at 4 in the morning, we’re both a bit concerned. ‘Cause the high
you gave to me yesterday well it threatens to fade and we’re both afraid of the day one of us runs away. It’s been a while since I’ve been
willing to trust anyone, and your suit seems nicely tailored, but is it all a front. Oh I messed up thinking you were mister right. Now you are
so concerned convincing me that you might not me love now, but you’re not gonna make me cry. Chorus. I know I’m not your keeper I am
temporary. Might not be your keeper, but I’ll be a pleasant memory. Might not be your keeper, but boy if I leave, you’re gonna miss me.
Might not be your keeper but a little bit of you loves me.
