Modern Love

We got style and we got grace

We run wild and never dance alone

In this town she's fucking famous

But this town will never be her home

The sun sets on a promise kept

And I try, but I don't need this modern love

This modern love

Oh, it always lets me down

Ooh-ooh-oh, ooh-ooh-oh

This modern love

This modern love

Oh, it always lets me down

Ooh-ooh-oh, ooh-ooh-oh

The popularity trap strikes again

You don't need these fools 'cause you're incroyable

Which is French for incredible

We found solace at The Star and Garter

No malice, I could feel you coming out of love

Ignore the warming signs

And we try, but I don't need this modern love

This modern love

Oh, it always lets me down

Ooh-ooh-oh, ooh-ooh-oh

This modern love

This modern love

Oh, it always lets me down

It lets me down, alright

A bare mattress, a lockless door

Two waiting hearts and a pique assiette floor

Give me back those awkward exchanges

The fumbles and bath tub drama, you were just strangers

You talk about your graduation

That realization we might not be together forever

And ever, amen

Wide eyed and up all night

This could be good but I don't want to shy away

I hear them say, romance is dead

And I don't need this modern love

This modern love

Oh, it always lets me down (It lets me down)

(ooh-ooh-oh, ooh-ooh-oh)

(It lets me down)

This modern love

This modern love

Oh, it always lets me down

(It lets me down)

(It lets me down)

It lets me down, alright

Ooh-ooh-oh, ooh-ooh-oh
