Joe Jackson - Love Got Lost lyrics

Here we go, monday morning at last In the land of the brave and the bold Sunlight is hurting my eyes But it's on to the glittering prize There's a rent to pay Gimme a coffee to go, make it fast There'll be a merger before it gets cold They've closed down the whole seventh floor The young guns are ready for war But i'm 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 boh Used the spare ticket just for my coat I guess i should swallow my pride But i'd be damned if i hawked it outside In the pouring rain Monday morning, and no-one to blame Keep hitting icebergs but i'm still afloat I'd like a new body and face But i'd settle for a friend with a space On their calendar Up to now, and hard to say Wonder what i've found But love got lost Along the way Here comes mr. worldly and wise If he touches me again i'll scream I can't stand his sensitive eyes Like i'm some dying diva to him Touch me...don't touch me Touch me...don't touch me Long ago and far away I was safe and sound But love got lost Along the way
