Love Got Lost

Night & Day 2

Here we go, monday morning at last
In the land of the brave & the bold
Sunlight is hurting my eyes
But it's on to the glittering prize
There's a rent to pay
Gimme a coffee to go, make it fast
There'll be a merger before it gets cold
They've closed down the whole seventh floor
The young guns are ready for war
But i'm holding on

Long ago & far away
I was safe & sound
But love got lost
Along the way

Saturday night, went to see la bohème
Used the spare ticket just for my coat
I guess i should swallow my pride
But i'd be damned if i hawked it outside
In the pouring rain
Monday morning, & no-one to blame
Keep hitting icebergs but i'm still afloat
I'd like a new body & face
But i'd settle for a friend with a space
On their calendar

Up to now, & hard to say
Wonder what i've found
But love got lost
Along the way

Here comes mr. worldly & wise
If he touches me again i'll scream
I can't stand his sensitive eyes
Like i'm some dying diva to him

Touch me...don't touch me
Touch me...don't touch me

Long ago & far away
I was safe & sound
But love got lost
Along the way
