Matt Nathanson - Modern Love lyrics

rate me

She said this talkin

Just kinda wears me out

N all these salesmen

Baby make me tired

Theyre no good

Tell you the truth she said

I've been getting used to liars

They sing me love songs

Store-bought words

They make promises

Like politicians

So we stumble

N we disconnect

Over and over again

This modern love

Is not enough

She said watch your back

I'm nobodys girlfriend

This modern love

Is not enough

Oh oh oh oh oh

They said one big exhale never did me no

Good

I let em in I

Oh man I let em win

I burned my house down

Just to hear em scream my name

I've carried hope

And heavy daydreams

She said

But I'm done with sleepin

Take the phone calls

Take this circus

Take the drama

Cuz baby it's

Just worthless

This modern love

Is not enough

She said watch your back

I'm nobodys girlfriend

This modern love

Is not enough

Oh oh oh oh oh

They said one big exhale never did me no

Good

One big exhale never did me no good

And the bright light shines

Still we ache n we break n we

Try

The stage lights shine

And they blind our eyes

To it all

Oh oh

Still we ache n we break n we just can't

Get it right

This modern love

Is not enough

She said watch your back

I'm nobodys girlfriend

This modern love

Is not enough

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh

This modern love

Yeah it's a taco truck

Come on take the phone calls

N I'll take the silence

This modern love

Is not enough

Oh oh oh oh

Oh yeah

One big exhale

Never did me no good

One exhale

One big exhale yeah

One exhale

Never did me no good

Oh never did me no good
