I cannot follow us like a persistent worm
That's not a thing that I can do
You are a lake of love, a raging genius
And you don't want the things I do

The first time we met up, asked you in for coffee
You said: That's the oldest trick in the book
And when I think about you often, I picture you smirking
When I used the oldest trick in the book

Cute if not pitiful, so unoriginal
And yet, it's how it all begins
If I'm a lake, then you, you're a deep diver
And who can say if that's enough to win?

The first time we met up, asked you in for coffee
You said: That's the oldest trick in the book
And when I think about you often, I picture you smirking
When I used the oldest trick in the book

The first time we met up, asked you in for coffee
You said: That's the oldest trick in the book
And when I think about you often, I picture you smirking
When I used the oldest trick in the book
