Madonna - Drowned World / Substitute for Love Lyrics

(You see)

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

(You see)

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

(You see)

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 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

Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm

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

Mmmm
Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm
Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm

The face of you
My substitute for love
My substitute for love
Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm
Should I wait for you?
My substitute for love
My substitute for love

(You see)

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