Do you still feel younger than you thought you would by now?
Or darling have you started feeling old yet?
Don't worry, I'm sure that you're still
breaking hearts, with the efficiency
that only youth can harness
And do you still think love is a laserquest
Or do you take it all more seriously?
I've tried to ask you this in some daydreams that I've had
But you're always busy being make-believe
Chorus:
And do you look into the mirror, to remind yourself, you're there?
Or has somebodies goodnight kisses got that covered?
Well I'm not being honest, I'll pretend that you were just some lover
Now I can't think of there without thinking of you
I doubt that comes as a surprise
And I can't think of anything to dream about
I can't find anywhere to hide
Chorus:
And when I'm hanging on by the rings around my eyes
And I convince myself I need another
And for a minute, it gets easier
To pretend that you were just some lover
When I'm pipe and slippers and rocking chair
Singing dreadful songs about summer.
Well I've found a better method of pretending you were just some lover
Well I've found a better method of pretending you were just some lover
