Caitlin Rose - Modern Dancing lyrics

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

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

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' it's 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

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

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

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
Modern dancing
