So hes retired
Lives with his sister in a furnished flat
Hes got this suit that
Hell never wear outside without a hat
His hair is white but he looks half his age
He looks like jimmy stewart in his younger days.
And honestly, I might be
Stupid to think love is love
But I do
And youve waited so long and
Ive waited long enough for you.
My mothers calling
From where shes living up in troy, vermont
She tries to tell me
A father figure must be what I want
Ive always thought age makes no difference
Am I the only one to whom thats making sense?
And honestly, I might be
Stupid to think love is love
But I do
And youve waited so long and
Ive waited long enough for you.
The day I met him he was raking leaves
In his tiny yard.
Of course I know that
Weve only got ten years, or twenty, left
But to be honest
Im happy with whatever time we get
Depending on which book you read
Sometimes it takes a lifetime to get what you need.
And honestly, I might be
Stupid to think love is love
But I do
And youve waited so long and
Ive waited long enough for you.
