neil diamond
a modern day version of love
And the night was filled with laughter Echoing through painted smiles And I knew each morning after I never loved, was never touched Gave not at all, got back as much In the co-o-omfort of A modern day version of lo-o-ove  Truly, how I've cursed the sweet taste Of lips that ask so-o much of me Still I wonder with every embrace Could I give, and not break Should I care, and forsake All the co-o-omfort of A modern day version of lo-o-ove  Close my eyes and keep on runnin' Realise it isn't gonna work anymor-ore For me, yeah-eah I'm afraid, well maybe that's somethin' Never cared enough to be afraid of anything Before, not before ...  Baffled child on streets of sinner Sleeping child, a morning call Playful spring, look face the winter Take thy hand, taste the kiss Leave behind, emptiness And the co-o-omfort of A modern day version of lo-o-ove
