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

And do you look into the mirror
To remind yourself you're there?
Or has somebodies goodnight kisses got that covered?
When I'm not being honest
I pretend you were just some lover

Now I can't think of her 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

And when I'm hanging on by the rings around my eyes
And I convince myself I need another
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
I found a better method of pretending
You were just some lover
