To think that we once shared a home
To think that we once had a goal
And I was once inside your heart
Oh and now this end it means a start
So what’s love like in the present tense?
How did I rate?
How can I defend?
It hurts too much for me to comprehend
I lose you all over again
Is he mr. Incredible, mr desirable
Mr emotional, always devotional
Mr and mrs who always blow kisses
Their children are children who crave possibilities
Ain’t life so cruel when you’re just not good enough?
Ain’t life so cruel when there’s someone else she loves?
To think that you now share a bed
Oh to think my piece was never said
Oh we run but never got too far
Oh we were in the race but never left the start
So what’s love like in the present tense
Was there any change, how much did you spend?
You make love kissing someone else’s face
The honeymoon starts everyday
Is he mr. Dependable, mr commendable
Never mucks up like a mr. Expendable
Mr and mrs he washes the dishes
But gives you the life of finances unlimited
Ain’t life so cruel when you’re just not good enough?
Ain’t life so cruel when there’s someone else she loves?
There’s no time to be happy
Too much to be sad
Hope that our time was the best that you had
Though everything seems such a blur we did love
And everything that you did wrong I forgot
So what’s love like sitting on the fence
D’you ever look back, to how we were then
It hurts so much for you to lose my name
I’d lose you all over again
Is he mr exceptional, mr professional
Never in doubt through and through heterosexual
Love’s never fast and he always comes last
He’s the best seller a relationship enthusiast
Mr incredible, mr desirable, mr emotional
Always devotional
Mr and mrs who always blow kisses
Their children are children who crave possibilities
Ain’t life so cruel when you’re just not good enough?
Ain’t life so cruel when there’s someone else she loves?
