No Substitute for Love lyrics

I traded fame for love
Without a second thought
It all became a silly game
Some things cannot be bought
I got exactly what I asked for
Wanted it so badly
Went running, rushing back for more
I suffered fools so gladly
And now, I find
I changed my mind
I found a new religion

[Chorus]
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I will wait for you
No substitute for love

[Verse 2]
I traveled 'round the world
Looking for a home
I found myself in crowded rooms
Feeling so alone
I had so many lovers
Who settled for the thrill
Of basking in my spotlight
I never felt fulfilled
And now, I find
I changed my mind
I found a new religion
[Chorus]
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I will wait for you
No substitute for love
Face the truth
No substitute for love

[Bridge]
I've had a change of heart
I'll make a brand new start
No famous faces, far off places
Trinkets I can't buy
No handsome stranger, heady danger
Drug that I can't try
No Ferris wheel, no heart to steal
Laughter in the dark
No one night stand, no far off land
Fire that I can't spark

[Chorus]
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I will wait for you
No substitute for love
Face the truth
No substitute for love
Substitute for love
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I will wait for you
No substitute for love
Face the truth
No substitute for love
No substitute for love
