Modern Love

Modern love

On your mobile phone

In a dark room

All alone

Texting someone

You used to know

Modern love

All alone

Modern touch

How you’ve grown

Simple wishes

A small fish bone

Stuck in your throat

You can cope with it..

Modern love

Modern soul

Temper tantrums

Tarantulas

Caught on a string

You like to laugh

It’s swinging back n forth

And you smoke it all

Modern pictures

Vintage tone

Modern love hold me

Modern love told me

Modern love throws me back in to the world again

Take me back

To the past

Where we strolled on cobbled esplanades

And the fun house mirrors

Fade to black

There were bulb lights flashin’

We paid in cash

In to space

And back again

The old ones lose

The children win

And I see you smiling

Your Cheshire grin

On a tree branch swinging

In the wind

Whistle softly

Old songs

Of love

You learned about

The turtle dove

And the glove makers

All join in song

About Modern thoughts

And Modern love

Modern love holds me

Modern love shows me

Modern love throws me back in to the world again
