Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] To be lost in the forest, to be caught adrift You've been trying to reach me, you bought me a book To be lost in the forest, to be caught adrift I've been paid, I've been paid I've been lost in the forest, to be caught adrift You've been trying to reach me, you bought me a book To be lost in the forest, to be caught adrift I've been paid, I've been weighed, I've been [Verse 2] 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 discerning I will be yours [Bridge] I'll pay for you anytime I'll pay for you anytime [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] And you told me you wanted to eat up my sadness Well jump on, enjoy, 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 I will be yours What are you holding out for? What's always... (In the way?) Why so damn absent-minded? Why so scared... (Of romance?) [Chorus] This modern love breaks me This modern love wastes me This modern love breaks me This modern love wastes me [Instrumental Break] [Outro] Do you wanna come over and kill some time? Do you wanna come over and kill some time? Tell me facts, tell me facts, tell me facts, tell me facts Throw your arms around me
