LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: DROWNED WORLD/SUBSTITUTE FOR LOVE/MADONNA

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

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
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

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

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