Mr Harris

So he's retired

Lives with his sister in a furnished flat

He's got this suit that

He'll 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 you've waited so long and

I've waited long enough for you.



My mother's calling

From where she's living up in troy, vermont

She tries to tell me

A father figure must be what i want

I've always thought age makes no difference

Am i the only one to whom that's making sense?





And honestly, i might be

Stupid to think love is love

But i do

And you've waited so long and

I've waited long enough for you.



The day i met him he was raking leaves

In his tiny yard.

Of course i know that

We've only got ten years, or twenty, left

But to be honest

I'm 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 you've waited so long and

I've waited long enough for you.
