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 paid, I've been-

Don't get offended if I seem absent minded

Just keep telling me facts and keep making me smile

And 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 will 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 on shorty, you can gorge away

And 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

And 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
