ESMERALDA DIMUZIO SINGLES CHRONOLOGY
Last single: Fractured Galaxy (2004) Next single: Fly Into The Sky (2004)

Temporary Lover is the second single from Esmeralda Dimuzio's self-titled English-language debut album. After the #13 debut of her first single, her management had promise in her career, and pushed her harder with this single. The move worked, and "Temporary Lover" exceeded everyone's expectations, charting at #2, behind Lucreacia's massive single Reputation. It even outcharted a much-hyped duet from Tasha and Emma Brown in its debut week. "Temporary Lover" eventually sold 272,770 copies, becoming her first platinum single, and is remembered as one of her biggest hits to date.

Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Tonight, I feel all alone I call my friends up on the phone "Let's go out and have some fun" I put on some clothes and get on the run

This guy I see in my eyes from afar Shines in my eye like a shooting star My mind is drifting, I pull over to the right "Jump on in, for one crazy night!"

I can't be with him all the time But for now I feel, he is all mine

My temporary lover, for just one night We won't last forever, but now it feels right My temporary lover, if only a friend But when I get back, I wish this moment would never end

As me and my girls chat him up for a while There's a tap on my shoulder, I feel it for a mile "Get away from my woman", he screamed to the right And before my eyes, they get into a fight

Why can't he be mine forevermore? My heart breaks gently, right down to the core

My temporary lover, for just one night We won't last forever, but now it feels right My temporary lover, if only a friend But when I get back, I wish this moment would never end

I find myself at home in my bed With these quiet thoughts running through my head He was never mine; it was just a dream But it was all so real, or so it seemed.

Someday soon, I know he'll be mine My temporary lover, of a different kind

My temporary lover, for just one night We won't last forever, but now it feels right My temporary lover, if only a friend But when I get back, I wish this moment would never end

My temporary lover, for just one night We won't last forever, but now it feels right My temporary lover, if only a friend But when I get back, I wish this moment would never end
