Mr Harris Lyrics - Whatever - Aimee Mann

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.
