Love Got Lost — текст песни (Joe Jackson)

Here we go, monday morning at last

In the land of the brave and the bold

Sunlight is hurting my eyes

But its on to the glittering prize

Theres a rent to pay

Gimme a coffee to go, make it fast

Therell be a merger before it gets cold

Theyve closed down the whole seventh floor

The young guns are ready for war

But Im holding on



Long ago and far away

I was safe and sound

But love got lost

Along the way



Saturday night, went to see la bohme

Used the spare ticket just for my coat

I guess I should swallow my pride

But Id be damned if I hawked it outside

In the pouring rain

Monday morning, and no-one to blame

Keep hitting icebergs but Im still afloat

Id like a new body and face

But Id settle for a friend with a space

On their calendar





Up to now, and hard to say

Wonder what Ive found

But love got lost

Along the way



Here comes mr. worldly and wise

If he touches me again Ill scream

I cant stand his sensitive eyes

Like Im some dying diva to him





Touch me...dont touch me

Touch me...dont touch me



Long ago and far away

I was safe and sound

But love got lost

Along the way
