Temporary Song

Verse

The summer sun was settin' over the camp in the trees

Felt like the only place where a heart could find ease

He was standin' by the bonfire, quotin' scripture so sweet

Said he'd never met a girl who could sweep him right off his feet

He talked about the future, faith, and a life pure and true

I thought, "Lord, finally, a good one, this one’s gonna see me through."

Chorus

But the promises they make under the moonlight and the pines

They shatter easy when you cross those county lines.

Church Camp Charlie faded when he hit the concrete road

He left me sittin' by the phone, carryin' a lonely load.

I was prayin' for a call, wonderin' what I had done wrong

Just the sweet, quiet ending of a temporary song.

Verse

The texts got shorter, the weekends were dead quiet space

While he was out with his buddies, I was starin' at this place

The place where I waited, the place where I dreamed

A simple phone call was harder than it ever seemed.

Every siren I heard, every notification buzz

I wondered, Did he stop thinkin' about the girl he said he loves?

We had that tough conversation, quick and cold on the wire

Felt like I was standing on the ashes of a dying fire.

Bridge

Two weeks of tear tracks, two weeks of feelin' small

Thought maybe real love wasn't meant for me at all.

Then the skies opened up, the Good Lord had a plan

He sent a Tennessee titan, a bigger, better man.

Walked into that room like a gentle, giant breeze

A whirlwind of kindness, knockin' me to my knees.

Verse

He didn't need the spotlight, but the world knew his name

A fierce NFL player, but his heart was not a game.

His name was Thor, and he loved the Lord like he loved the line of scrimmage

He didn't just talk sweet, he lived it out, in perfect image.

He didn't leave me waitin', he didn't run and hide

He just pulled me closer, and stood right by my side.

Now we’re a family, sittin’ cozy by the fire

His devotion to me just lifts my spirit higher.

Outro

Oh, the campfires burn out, but true love burns brighter

I traded in a heartbreak for a stadium lighter.

Gave all my broken pieces to the One who understands

Found my peace, my purpose, in a mighty football player's hands.
