Love Is a Laserquest

      G                              Em
Do you still feel younger than you thought you would by now
    Am                                 D
or, darling, have you started feeling old yet?
      G                                Em
Don't worry, I'm sure that you're still breaking hearts
                 Am                      D
with the efficiency that only youth can harness.
          G                      Em
And do you still think love is a laserquest?
     Am                            D
Or do you take it all more seriously?
               G                    Em
I've tried to ask you this in some daydreams that I've had,
                Am                       D
but you're always busy being make-believe.


[Chorus]

    C                              D
And do you look into the mirror to remind yourself you're there?
          G                                   C
Or have somebody's good-night kisses got that covered?
                                D                     C          G
When I'm not being honest, I'll pretend that you were just some lover.


[Verse 2]

G                              Em
Now I can't think of there without thinking of you,
 Am                          D
I doubt that comes as a surprise.
     G                             Em
And I can't think of anything to dream about,
Am                        D
I can't find anywhere to hide.


[Chorus]

          C                         D
And when I'm hanging on by the rings around my eyes
          G                    C
and I convince myself I need another.
                                      D                   C         G
And for a minute it gets easier to pretend that you were just some lover.


[Bridge]

G Em Am D


[Chorus]

          C                     D
When I'm pipe and slippers and rocking chair,
         G                    C
singing dreadful songs about summer.
                                        D                 C         Em
Will I have found a better method of pretending you were just some lover?
             C                          D                 C         G
Will I have found a better method of pretending you were just some lover?
