Overseas - Old Love lyrics

I'm thinking back to a sensual act I
Enjoyed with a girl in my teens
While me and the Mrs
Exchange goodnight kisses
Rollover, pretend we're asleep
That's when it hit me what my old man meant
When he warned us that nothing is free
Old love's not truer than new love
Old lovers just know what it means

A bee sting swells up for a day or two
Mosquito bites itch for a week
Sleep on the sofabed nearly a month
For an innocent kiss on the cheek
If I still wanna trade in some nuclear woes
For a hive where the drones eat the queen
Well then old loves not truer than new love
I need three pours just to
Walk through the door
Be civil and not make a scene
The only thing dripping is contempt as she
Hands me a box from the pharmacy
Three more to choke it all down 'cause
We both know that I'll never leave
Old loves not truer than new love
Old lovers just know what it means

Old loves not truer than new love
Old lovers just know what it means
