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 whichever 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
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
