Do you still feel younger than you thought you would by now

Or darlin', have you started feelin' old yet?

Don't worry, I'm sure that you're still breakin' 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 bein' make-believe

And do you look into the mirror to remind yourself you're there

Or have somebody's goodnight kisses got that covered?

When I'm not bein' honest, I'll pretend that you were just some lover

Now I can't think of there without thinkin' 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 hangin' 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 rockin' chair

Singin' dreadful songs about summer

Will I have found a better method of pretendin' you were just some lover?

Will I have found a better method of pretendin' you were just some lover?
