City Boy - Modern Love Affair Lyrics

Who was it called this romance!

The fool with feathers in his head

A river to be sold down, the book that we both read

An empty lounge in some hotel

A fighter's thoughts before the bell


The film we first held hands at

A song that told us "No Regrets"

We asked for Mother's handouts, you ask and we shall

get

The money saved and money spent

The early morning arguments


Is this a modern love affair!

Is this a modern love affair!


Now if I shrug my shoulders

And only pass the time of day

It's more than wine and roses could ever say

Though I might sulk and you may brood, just thank

God it's me and you


Is this a modern love affair!

Is this a modern love affair!

The one they tell you to beware of


We asked for Mother's handouts, you ask and we shall

get (Repeat)



Is this a modern love affair!

Is this a modern love affair!

The one they tell you to beware of
