Modern Love Story
Ray Cappo
A boy, a girl- a love story.
But why did it end in misery?
Taking our chances, getting our thrills..
Taking and taking but never getting our fill.
And this is what I see.
A modern love story.
Love defined on our TV.
Telling us, teaching us what we need.
Are we in love or just so alone,
That we´re looking for anyone to hold?
When the prey is caught, the thrill gone,
So we´ll switch partners and move along.
And we won´t use our brains,
Because our lust is too strong.
Overlooking the person to whom the body belongs.
