I had so many lovers, who settled for the thrill
The face of you
And now I find, I've changed my mind
The face of you
My substitute for love
Of baskin' in my spotlight, I never felt so happy
My substitute for love
Should I wait for you
Running, rushing back for more, I suffered fools so gladly
My substitute for love, mmm
Mmm, mmm
My substitute for love
I got exactly what I asked for, wanted it so badly
Now I find I've changed my mind
Mmm, ohh, mmm
My substitute for love
My substitute for love
Should I wait for you
Famous faces, far off places, trinkets I can buy
No one-night stand, no far-off land, no fire that I can spark
My substitute for love
I traveled round the world, looking for a home
Mmm, mmm
My substitute for love
No ferris wheel, no heart to steal, no laughter in the dark
My substitute for love
My substitute for love
I found myself in crowded rooms, feeling so alone
Should I wait for you
My substitute for love
My substitute for love
No handsome stranger, heady danger, drug that I can try
The face of you
