Substitute Lyrics

I don't want to lie to you, baby

I'm not the right guy for you, but maybe

I could maybe get some time tonight



I know I could

Be the substitute

Be your temporary tattoo

I could make believe it's true

For tonight, for tonight



I'm just not the type that sends you flowers

I'll be by your side and be gone in the morning hours

Let's get some time tonight



I know I could

Be the substitute

Be your temporary tattoo

I could make believe it's true

For tonight

I could play the second string

Even better than the real thing

I could tell you anything

For tonight



For tonight

For tomorrow

For the best days of your life

So don't keep waitin'

For me straighten up my life



Let's get some time tonight



I know I could

Be the substitute

Be your temporary tattoo

I could make believe it's true

For tonight

I could play the second string

Even better than the real thing

I could tell you anything

For tonight



For tonight

For tonight

For tonight
