THIS MODERN LOVE

 

To be lost in the forest

To be cut adrift

You've been trying to reach me

You bought me a book

To be lost in the forest

To be cut adrift

I've been paid

I've been paid

 

To be lost in the forest

To be cut adrift

You've been trying to reach me

You bought me a book

To be lost in the forest

To be cut adrift

I've been paid

I've been weighed

I've been...

 

Don't get offended

If I seem absent minded

Just keep telling me facts

And keep making me smile

Don't get offended

If I seem absent minded

I get tongue-tied

Baby, you've got to be more discerning

I've never known what's good for me

Baby, you've got to be more demanding

I'll be yours

 

I'll pay for you anytime

I'll pay for you anytime

 

And you told me

You wanted to eat up my sadness

Well jump right in shorty

You can gorge away

You told me

You wanted to eat up my sadness

Jump right

Baby, you've got to be more discerning

I've never known what's good for me

Baby, you've got to be more demanding

Jump left

 

What are you holding out for?

What's always in the way?

Why so damn absent-minded?

Why so scared of romance?

 

This modern love breaks me

This modern love wastes me

 

This modern love breaks me

This modern love wastes me

 

Do you wanna come over

And kill some time?

Do you wanna come over

And kill some time?

Do you wanna come over

And kill some time?

Throw your arms around me
