Lyrics:

Usually by this time of day
I'm begging someone to refill my cup

Been kicked out so many times
I wonder why I bother showing up

Maybe I ain't got the hint
But by now you would think I should've guessed

But since I don't seem to care
I'll tell you what I honestly suggest

You don't need a drinking buddy with an imaginary lover
It gets easier to numb the hurt from one girl to another
Put yourself out there and in time you'll find it's true
An imaginary lover buys your drinks and lets you go on being you

Usually by this time of day
I'm purchasing whatever I can get

Maxing out my credit cards
On clothes and shoes that do not even fit

It's not much but living this way
Eats your pockets from the inside out

Little things like pawn shop rings
Make me feel like the talk of this whole town

You don't need a shopping buddy with an imaginary lover
It gets easier to numb the hurt from one girl to another
Put yourself out there and in time you'll find it's true
An imaginary lover holds your bags and lets you go on being you

You've got a chance in life with an imaginary lover
It gets easier to numb the hurt from one girl to another
Probably won't change a thing but yet I still believe
An imaginary lover's meant for you and there's one surely meant for me
