Madonna | Lyrics | Drowned World/Substitute for Love

I traded fame for love without a second thought
It all became a silly a 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

I traveled 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 baskin' 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
Mmm, ohh, mmm

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

Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm

The face of you
My substitute for love
My substitute for love, mmm
Should I wait for you
My substitute for love
My substitute for love

Now I find I've changed my mind
This is my religion
