Lyrics

[Intro: Jesse Pearson] (You see) [Verse 1: Madonna] I traded fame for love Without a second thought It all became a silly game Some things cannot be bought I got exactly what I asked for Wanted it so badly Running, rushing back for more I suffered fools so gladly And now, I find I've changed my mind [Sample: Jesse Pearson] (You see) [Chorus: Madonna] The face of you My substitute for love My substitute for love Should I wait for you? My substitute for love My substitute for love [Sample: Jesse Pearson] (You see) [Verse 2: Madonna] I traveled 'round the world Looking for a home I found myself in crowded rooms Feeling so alone I had so many lovers Who settled for the thrill Of basking in my spotlight I never felt so happy [Chorus: Madonna] The face of you My substitute for love My substitute for love Should I wait for you? My substitute for love My substitute for love [Bridge: Madonna] Mmm, ooh, mmm Famous faces, far off places Trinkets I can buy No handsome stranger, heady danger Drug that I can try No Ferris wheel, no heart to steal No laughter in the dark No one-night stand, no far-off land No fire that I can spark Mmm, mmm [Chorus: Madonna] The face of you My substitute for love My substitute for love, mmm Should I wait for you? My substitute for love My substitute for love [Sample: Jesse Pearson] (You see) [Outro: Madonna] Now I find I've changed my mind This is my religion
