I wonder if I need to bring this up with my shrink... just typing the word lover makes me laugh!
Am I the only one? Does the rest of the country / world actually use the word "lover" in their vocabulary?
By conversation, I'm talking about spoken or written, but not singing along to the many lyrical "lover" 's that are out there, or reading and / or reciting poetry and whatnot! (But if it's lyrics or poetry you've written, that counts!)
And I'm asking about the word in the context of "lovers", not as in dog lover, cat lover, buffet lover, etc! (intentionally one 't')
Thanks for playing!
You’re still grinning, we’re still winning, nothing left to say
I’m still gliding as I go flying down this endless wave
Saw you in the front row
Moving to the beat
(Just movin' and groovin')
Killed me when I saw
The wet patch on your seat
(Wasn't Coca Cola)
Oh baby
I hope you liked the show
When the band said good night
I had to say hello
CHORUS:
Little lover, I can't get you off my mind (no)
Little lover, I've been trying hard to find
Someone like you
Oh baby
You sure looked sweet
(Cruisin')
A leg either side
Of my motorcycle seat
(Just oozin')
Could have been a nightmare
Could have been a dream
But on my way home, baby
I thought I heard you scream
Little lover, I can't get you off my mind
Little Lover, I've been trying hard to find
someone to give me the things that I need, ow!
You had my picture
On your bedroom wall
(Next to Gary Glitter)
I was standing on the stage
Playing rock 'n' roll
(I was a guitar picker)
Never had a record
Never had a hit
Oh baby
You didn't mind a bit
CHORUS
Baby I know you're a -
Little lover
And yeah I use it in joking or flirting with the ladies at my job.
Like "hey lover" or "take care my serendipitous lover"

The problem is all inside your head, she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
Id like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
She said its really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning wont be lost or misconstrued
But Ill repeat myself at the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
Just slip out the back, jack
Make a new plan, stan
You dont need to be coy, roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, lee
And get yourself free

Oh, me too! Thanks!

She met, dated and married the first man she fell in love with, in 1978....They are still married, with 2 grown children, and she still calls him "Lover" to this day....
To his face, and when talking about him....
Course she calls me "Puddin'". and her children "Bohicket" and "Pookie"...so what does she know?
I love the lover songs! I hope everyone feels free to interject their favorites!

who will glue you to the floor"

I met my old lover
On the street last night
She seemed so glad to see me
I just smiled
And we talked about some old times
And we drank ourselves some beers
Still crazy afler all these years
Oh, still crazy after all these years
How d'you do, I see you've met my faithful handyman
He's just a little brought down, because when you knocked
He thought you were the candyman....
Don't get strung out by the way that I look,
Don't judge a book by its cover
I'm not much of a man by the light of day,
But by night I'm one hell of a lover.....
