Love Is a Laserquest

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?

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

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

Will I've found a better method of

Pretending you were just some lover?

Will I've found a better method

Of pretending you were just some lover?
