Steve Mardon - Short-Term Romance lyrics

Your rating:
Maybe you meet her at an airport, maybe you meet her at a bar

Maybe you meet her at a red light, when she bumps into your car

When she gives you her phone number, and says, “Why don't you call me soon?”

You're just a month or two away from an old familiar tune:



Short-term romance, long-term pain

A brand new melody with a tired old refrain

Short-term romance, long-term pain

What heats up like a fever, can all go up in flames



You thought you made the right connection, she'd never do you any harm

By the way she touched your fingers, when you woke up in her arms

Ah, but looks can be deceiving, if your timing is all wrong

'Cause if you catch her on the rebound, you'll sing an old familiar song:



Short-term romance, long-term pain

A brand new melody with a tired old refrain

Short-term romance, long-term pain

First you're walking on a railroad, then you're flattened by a train



When she tells you that it's over, it's the usual cliches

“I've given everything I have to give, it's best we go our separate ways”

Feel like you're in a movie, and as the camera fades to black

The credits start to rolling, guess what you hear on the soundtrack:



Short-term romance, long-term pain

A brand new melody with a tired old refrain

Short-term romance, long-term pain

At least you got a little love in, before it all went down the drain



Romance … pain … melody … with a tired old refrain

God I hate this melody, such a tired old refrain
