Lyrics
A Modern Day Version Of Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And the night was filled with laughter
Echoing through painted smiles
And I knew each morning after
I never loved
Was never touched
Gave not at all
Got back as much in the comfort of
A modern day version of love
Truly, how I've cursed the sweet taste
Of lips that ask so much of me
Still I wonder with every embrace
Could I give
And not break?
Should I care
And forsake all the comfort of
A modern day version of love?
Close my eyes and keep on runnin'
Realise it isn't gonna work anymore
For me
I'm afraid, well, maybe that's somethin'
Never cared
Enough to be afraid of anything
Before
Not before
Baffled child on streets of sinner
Sleeping child, a morning call
Playful spring, look face the winter
Take the hand
Taste the kiss
Leave behind
Emptiness and the comfort of
A modern day version of love
