[Intro]
(Love, love, love)
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
[Verse 1]
In the moonlight
Under starlight
Songs old as the night are what I've been dreaming of
Everybody's hard as iron
Locked in a modern world
Dreams are made of a different stuff
[Pre-Chorus]
I believe love will always be the same (Love)
The ways and means are the parts subject to change
[Chorus]
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
It's the method of modern love
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
It's the method of modern love
[Verse 2]
I can call you
Got your number
Share my life with you a thousand miles away
If you hurt me
I haven't shown it
Time's too tight to fight
And we're never face to face
[Pre-Chorus]
Style is timeless and fashion's only now (Love, love, love)
We got the ways, no one needs to show us how
[Chorus]
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
It's the method of modern love
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
It's the method of modern love
(Love)
[Breakdown]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Love, love, love
Ooh, ooh
Method of, method of
Love, love, love
Love
Method of, method of
Love, love, love
Love
[Outro]
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
(Love, love-love, love)
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
(Love, love)
It's a modern love
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
I know what you're dreaming of
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
What we got is a method of modern love
It's a method of
It's a method of modern love
We know what we do, or don't we (M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E)
We know what we do, or don't we (M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E)
In the moonlight
In the starlight
Songs old as the night
Are what I've been dreamin' of
(It's a method of) It's a method of modern love
Dreams are made of a different stuff (M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E)
And we're living in a method of modern love
At present tense, past, time behind (M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E)
And don't fall for the same old line
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
Don't you know that it's a method of modern love?
I've got the way we work (M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E)
I've got a way we run
I do believe that I'm inclined to look ahead and not behind
(M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E)
I got the method, baby, and it's right on time
And it's a method of modern love
(It's a method of modern love)
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
I know what you're dreaming of
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
Ooh
It's a method of modern love
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
Don't mess with imperfection
M-E-T-H-O-D-O-F-L-O-V-E
