Madonna - Drowned World (My Substitute For
Love)
from the album "Ray Of Light"
I traded fame for love
Without a second thought
It all became a silly game
Some things cannot be bought
Got xactly 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
I've changed my mind
The face of you, my substitute for love
Substitute for love
Should I wait for you my substitute for love
Substitute for love
Travelled 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
The face of you, my substitute for love
Substitute for love
Should I wait for you my substitute for love
Substitute for love
Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Ohh Ohh Ohh Ohh Ohh
No famous places, far off places, trinkets I can buy
No handsome stranger, heady danger, drug that I can try
No ferris wheel, no heart to steal
Laughter in the dark
No one night stand, no far off land
No fire that I can spark
Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm
The face of you, my substitute for love
Substitute for love
Should I wait for you my substitute for love
Substitute for love
Now I find I've changed my life
This is my religion
