I traded fame for love, without a second thought.
It all became a silly game, some things cannot be bought.
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.
Had so many lovers, who settled for the thrill.
Of 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!
No 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.
