Momentary Lover - Club Nouveau

But I thought you love me!

I do love you, I love when we’re together

But I’m not 'in' love with you, I love the moment

But what about all the time we spent together?

Didn’t that mean anything to you?

Oh, yeah, of course it meant something to me

It meant a lot, it’s just that

Well, I can’t really be tied down right now

Is there someone else?

They always think there’s someone else

No, it’s not another man, it’s just me, I’m not…

Well, then what is it?

Don’t you love me?

Yes, I don’t love you, for now

Not forever?

I love you for the moment…

I finally realized that you won’t be with me

It’s taken time for me to understand

That I must set you free

Oh, yes, it’s hard for me to let it go

I’ve had you for sometime

Your love is heavy on my heart

Your thoughts are heavy on my mind

Remember that you said you’d be with me

You told me that you’d stay

And you would never want to be set free

But now you run away

So tell me where now are you running to

Do you have another man?

Is it something that I’ve done to you?

Please help me understand

Did I ever say that I was your woman?

Surely you understand we’re just friends

I know that what you feel is real

But for me it was just for that minute

Just a momentary lover

You said you’d be right by my side

(Momentary love)

Just a momentary love

Baby, you left me for another guy

(I love you, just for that minute)

Just a momentary lover

Oh, girl, you’re always on my mind

(Momentary love)

Just a momentary love

But, baby, when I call you up

You ain’t got no time

(I fell in love in you, just for that minute)

How can a love once true in a moment pass you by?

And tell me if you love the way you do

Why don’t you want to try?

You said, «I've never ever done you wrong

I’ve been real good to you»

So tell me you will stay right here with me

If what you feel is true

I know that what you give is really good loving

What every woman wants sometime in life

I do enjoy your company

But for you I’m just not that woman

Just a momentary lover

You said you’d be right by my side

(Oh, momentary love)

Just a momentary love

Baby, you left me for another guy

(I love you, I love you for the minute)

Just a momentary lover

Girl, you’re always on my mind

(Momentary love)

Just a momentary love

Can’t we spend a little time

Just a momentary lover

Just a little bit, just a little

(Oh-oh-oh…)

Just a momentary love

Just a little time, please spend a little time

(Oh-oh-oh…)

Just a momentary lover

For the moment, for the moment, baby

(Girl, I’ll beat your game)

Just a momentary love

For the moment

Baby, you’ll never change

Baby, I thought you’d never leave

(But I had to leave)

I thought you’d never go away

(I had to go)

You told me you’d be right here

I love you

Afraid you’d never stay

I thought you’d always love me

Why must you leave

(Just for the moment)

Why must you go

Just a momentary lover

Said you’d be right be my side

Just a momentary love

Then you left me for another guy

Just a momentary lover

You’re just a moment

Just a momentary love

You’re just a minute

Just a momentary lover

Baby, let’s make sweet love

Just a momentary love

Your heart’s not, your heart’s not

Your heart’s not in it, oh, no

Just a momentary lover

A momentary love

Just a momentary love

A momentary love

Just a momentary lover

Just for the minute, see you’re not in it

All of my money, you always spend it

Just a momentary love

Baby, you could never be true

All of the things I’ve done for you

Just a momentary lover

I get so lonely, I love you only

Just a momentary love

Said you’d be right by my side

Left me for another guy

Just a momentary lover

Just a momentary love

Yeah

A momentary love, that’s what you are to me

And a full time lover you could never be

Never down for my love, just out for my money

But I’m upping your game, let me tell you, honey

One of these days, you’ll be jocking me

And in my arms, sweet baby, is where you’ll long to be

You’re not so clever, you’re not so fly

You’re just a momentary love, and I’m not that guy!

Just a momentary lover

You said you’d be right by my side

Just a momentary love

Baby, you left me for another guy

Just a momentary lover

Just a little bit, just a little

Just a momentary love

Just a little time

We could spend a little time…
