love supreme

I was listening to Robbie Williams song Supreme, and found his lyrics poignant and rather evocative.  I have quite a few favourite lines in this song that blow me away, but I think this one below I rather enjoy for some reason.  

All the lonely hearts in London caught a plane and flew away.

All the best women are married
All the handsome men are gay
You feel deprived.

Are there bags under your eyes?

Are you getting on a bit?
Do you survive?
Is there a tumour in your humour?

What are you really looking for?
Another partner in your life to abuse and to adore?

Turn down the love songs that you hear
You can't avoid the sentiment
That echoes in your ear

Looking for a love supreme.
