lyrics

A girlfriend is a great excuse
For writing love songs
A breakup is a source
For countless tragedies
And stories are the way
In which we like to pass on
How beautiful, how young and cool
We used to be

But what about those guys
With no romance in their eyes?
Writing jokes to prove the world
That they are happy with their lives

A wedding is a great excuse
To seek attention
To show that you have grown up
And that you are free
And if you only keep the smile
Throughout reception
You'll prove that anybody
Could forever be

And what about those guys?
Still no romance in their eyes
Writing jokes to prove the world
That they are happy with their lives

And do you believe them?
Yes I do
Do you believe that gullible side of you
Do you believe them?
Yes I do
Do you
Do you
Do you

A girlfriend is a great excuse
For writing love songs
A breakup is a source
For countless tragedies
And stories are the way
In which we like to pass on
How beautiful, how young and cool
We used to be

Do you believe them?
Yes I do
Do you believe that vulnerable side of you
Do you believe them?
Yes I do
Do you
Do you
Do you

A girlfriend is a great excuse (for writing)
A girlfriend is a great excuse
For writing love songs
