Under the Pines

I agreed to host the show
That was how this whole thing started
How was I supposed to know
I would end up so broken-hearted?

We had one night
That's all it meant to you
Now I'm alone, and I'm wishing I could stop
Thinking of you

I am in love (ooh, ooh)
But it's only a fantasy (ooh, ooh)
I'm in search of (ooh, ooh)
That hairy creature who cared for me
Under the pines

Tried so hard to play it cool
Didn't wanna overdo it
Wasn't I a lovesick fool
Sending you a big bag of suet and a red rose?

I thought at least you'd call
Was I so wrong for expecting something more
Nothing at all?

I am in love (ooh, ooh)
But it's only a fantasy (ooh, ooh)
I'm in search of (ooh, ooh)
That hairy creature who cared for me
Under the pines

Close my eyes and I see you there
Musky smell of your matted hair
Our minds were one
But only for a moment

We're shooting Atlantis now
I'm staring at the big blue ocean
Wish you could be here somehow
Wish I really had no emotion

I'd be like you, just living from day to day
Crushing the heads and the hearts of smaller things
Going away

I am in love (ooh, ooh)
But it's only a fantasy (ooh, ooh)
I'm in search of (ooh, ooh)
That hairy creature who cared for me
Under the pines
