Lyrics

Modern Love

[Intro]

I know when to go out

Know when to stay in

Get things done

[Verse 1]

I catch the paper boy

But things don't really change

I'm standing in the wind

But I never wave bye-bye

But I try

I try

[Verse 2]

There's no sign of life

It's just the power to charm

I'm lying in the rain

But I never wave bye-bye

But I try

I try

[Chorus]

Never going to fall for

(Modern love) Walks beside me

(Modern love) Walks on by

(Modern love) Gets me to the church on time

(Church on time) Terrifies me

(Church on time) Makes me party

(Church on time) Puts my trust in God and man

(God and man) No confessions

(God and man) No religion

(God and man) Don't believe in modern love

[Verse 3]

It's not really work

It's just the power to charm

Still standing in the wind

But I never wave bye-bye

But I try

I try

[Chorus]

Never going to fall for

(Modern love) Walks beside me

(Modern love) Walks on by

(Modern love) Gets me to the church on time

(Church on time) Terrifies me

(Church on time) Makes me party

(Church on time) Puts my trust in God and man

(God and man) No confessions

(God and man) No religion

(God and man) Don't believe in modern love

(Modern love) Walks beside me

(Modern love) Walks on by

(Modern love) Gets me to the church on time

(Church on time) Terrifies me

(Church on time) Makes me party

(Church on time) Puts my trust in God and man

(God and man) No confessions

(God and man) No religion

(God and man) Don't believe in modern love

Modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love

Modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love

(Modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love)

Modern love, walks beside me (Modern love)

Modern love, walks on by (Modern love)

Modern love, walks beside me (Modern love)

Modern love, walks on by (Modern love)

Never gonna fall for

(Modern love, modern love, modern love, modern love)
