Stand-in Lover

Ouch

By Charli LilliPublished 8 months ago 1 min read

Penny for your thoughts

Any price I’d pay

Take out your problems on me

I’ll compensate your pain

You can love me today then forget me tomorrow

I guess your affections just something I'll borrow

Limited edition, guess good things don’t last

Sparks turn into fires that end up as ash

We’re just momentary, I’m your stand-in lover

Need me one day, then forget me another
