This song is lovely! It's about love during the youth years and how we have this point of view of it where it is something like a "laserquest" in the sense that it's fast and strong and it snaps at a person suddenly. Then, as years go by, it changes and more things come which stop the whole thing of being like a laserquest and instead, being more complicated to achieve. The narrator also dedicates it to someone that he still thinks about and the laserquest never really disappeared for him. It hit him once and that's all it took.
Love Is a Laserquest
Lyrics
Do you still feel younger than you thought you would by now
Or darlin', have you started feelin' old yet?
Don't worry, I'm sure that you're still breakin' hearts
With the efficiency that only youth can harness
And do you still think love is a laserquest
Or do you take it all more seriously?
I've tried to ask you this in some daydreams that I've had
But you're always busy bein' make-believe
And do you look into the mirror to remind yourself you're there
Or have somebody's goodnight kisses got that covered?
When I'm not bein' honest, I'll pretend that you were just some lover
Now I can't think of there without thinkin' of you
I doubt that comes as a surprise
And I can't think of anything to dream about
I can't find anywhere to hide
And when I'm hangin' on by the rings around my eyes
And I convince myself I need another
And for a minute it gets easier to pretend that you were just some lover
When I'm pipe and slippers and rockin' chair
Singin' dreadful songs about summer
Will I have found a better method of pretendin' you were just some lover?
Will I have found a better method of pretendin' you were just some lover?
