Lockdown Lover from Sweet Optimism by Alun Parry

She's just a lockdown lover

Using me to get through

She's in my bubble

Whole load of trouble

What’s a boy to do

She's a lockdown lover

Under the cover

Wasting time for two



When she first kissed me

She didn’t even ask

But truth be told

She had to be bold

Well I was wearing a mask

We were skin to skin

And she moved into my pad



She's just a lockdown lover

Using me to get through

She's in my bubble

Whole load of trouble

What’s a boy to do

She's a lockdown lover

Under the cover

Wasting time for two



She said the world’s gone crazy

We're taken by surprise

So why be bored

Alone indoors

When we can’t go outside

Hold your horses

Let’s join forces she cried



She's just a lockdown lover

She's using me to get through

She's in my bubble

Whole load of trouble

What’s a boy to do

She's a lockdown lover

Under the cover

Wasting time for two



When the lockdown lifted

I had a heavy heart

I debated getting vaccinated

Cos I knew that we would part

She said pull yourself together

As soon as it’s winter weather

We’ll restart



She's just a lockdown lover

Using me to get through

She's in my bubble

Whole load of trouble

What’s a boy to do

She's a lockdown lover

Under the cover

Wasting time for two

She's a lockdown lover

Under the cover

Wasting time for two
