Love Is Back in the Game
Round and round and round
So much talk within the falling years
How they're winding down
None of us can drink as many a beers
But how we put them down
Far less talk of burgeoning careers
Pics of grandkids, dogs, and spouses gone
Some just moved on those bastards
How now to explain the sleepless nights
The feeling of freefall
This one's not from pain and doesn't need
An extra Tylenol
It's not the endless rain
Or thinking Florida come every Fall
This one's got some style
It's been a while but it's true
Love is Back in the Game
Called me out by my name
That's right, I'm talking to you
You don't need a reason, it's not like it's treason
To love again at this stage
Readers read on the gauge
You haven't read the last page, bless you
Looking hungry and sore
Hat in hand at my door
Just let me suit up again
I'll be a bench sitter, a designated hitter
Just get me back into play
In time for Old Timer's Day
So what was I suposed to say? OK
You and she are in astonishment mode
Words of love replace the lines to your ode
Just as you resigned to meet it with grace, comes a face
Hair as gray as mine
Though I will admit a little less fine
Daughter lives in Vermont
We'll spend Thanksgiving in a restaurant
Sadness deep in the eyes
Now incapable of telling lies
But sad leads to real, leads to love, leads to smile
Love is Back in the Game
Love is now back in vogue
Two are now going rogue
One crazy old dude, one crazy old dame!
Inappropriately acting like twenty three
Harmless as you can see why blame
Just in time to watch the ball falling down
All over Times Square
Look who's freezing their butts off
Out in the air
Ocean liner's big new state of the art
Wet wild water slide
Guess who's up at the top in line for the ride
Love is back in the news
Earned the life of the blues
Into a gold oldies song
The Moody Blues, the Blues MaGoos
Play McCartney and Ram
Play the whole Apple Jam
The Plastic Oh no no! Band
Life is a rewind, a pat on the behind
Love is back in my life
I think I'll take me a wife
And introduce her with pride-my new bride
So much talk within the falling years
How they're winding down
None of us can drink as many a beers
But how we put them down
Far less talk of burgeoning careers
Pics of grandkids, dogs, and spouses gone
Some just moved on those bastards
How now to explain the sleepless nights
The feeling of freefall
This one's not from pain and doesn't need
An extra Tylenol
It's not the endless rain
Or thinking Florida come every Fall
This one's got some style
