Lyrics

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 away, I've been away I've been 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 away, I've been away, I've been Don't get offended if I seem absent minded Just keep telling me facts and keep making me smile 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 Come on, Brussels I'll pay for you Anytime 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 'Cause 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? 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 Too kind, Brussels, too kind
