Drowned World / Substitute for Love

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 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 Traveled 'round the world Looking for a home I found myself in crowded rooms Feeling so alone I had so many lovers Who've settled for the thrill Basking in my spotlight I never felt so happy 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 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 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 And now I find I've changed my mind This is my religion
