As I lay here in my empty bed Thinking back on the times we had I count the days since you've been gone I know you got your own carrer But separations costs us dear And my tears can tell that we belong together It's not like I won't follow you to the end of the road But just like you I've got to find my own way in this life And every night I playmy songs in a smokey street restaurants But when the crowds are gone I'm all alone You're what love's about in the 21st century You're the one who moves me up in these restless times You're what love's about You're the only melody The song that lifts me up You soothe my troubled mind Another day another night a different bar and one more try I sing my songs But you never hear my melodies New york San Francisco Berlin Paris Rio They're beautiful but they never fill my fantasies Cause you're the only one I've ever called my home But you're not here with me so I don't wanna sing another song So I went out with my best friends To see if I can just pretend You're what love's about in the 21st century You're the one who moves me up in these restless times You're what love's about You're the only melody The song that lifts me up You soothe my troubled mind You're what love's about in the 21st century You're the one who moves me up in these restless times You're what love's about You're the only melody The song that lifts me up You soothe my troubled mind We can never fail cause our love is real Girl we got something and that's the loving feel Everybody's looking for answers But I think I know the truth One and one is more then two But I don't need nothing but me and you So I went out with my best friends To see if I can just pretend You're what love's about in the 21st century You're the one who moves me up in these restless times You're what love's about You're the only melody The song that lifts me up You soothe my troubled mind
