Modern Dancing Lyrics[Verse 1]
Good love's a prison, but it could never hold me
You break your own heart, my mother told me
And this was never the time for your gentleman call
Don't tell me that it's your first time around
Nobody ever gets used to the sound
You know this city was built for the wrecking ball
[Chorus]
I hope you know what you're doing
You don't know what you're asking
I've got a romance with ruin
And we're only modern dancing
[Verse 2]
Baby, you know it's no difference to me
You've been the same throughout history
It's a different face, but it's always the same set of eyes
There's time for everything runnin' its course
You know I've been a whore and a soldier of fortune
And no matter which way you play, it's all secrets and lies
[Chorus]
I hope you know what you're doing
You don't know what you're asking
I've got a romance with ruin
And we're only modern dancing
[Verse 3]
Star-crossed and ridin' on heaven's horses
I've had enough of these cosmic divorces
You know in the end that we only end up on our own
Still I'm in love with what's falling apart
And this just seems like another false start
And it's not for lack of trying, it's just that I can't seem to get it going
[Chorus]
I hope you know what you're doing
You don't know what you're asking
I've got a romance with ruin
And we're only modern dancing
Modern dancing
Modern dancing
Modern dancing
