These Days

Ron Sexsmith


Promises are made to be broken haven't you heard 
You said he'd never break your heart now haven't you learned 
You believed in the words and all that they meant 
Whoaw, but love is not some popular song filled with empty sentiment 

That's what passes for love 
That's what passes for love these days 
Oh these days 

And it won't take a miracle darling just keep it real 
This world can make us cynical darling I know how it feels 
You took it too hard to set on the screen 
Oh but love is not displaying a part into very scripted scenes. 

That's what passes for love 
That's what passes for love 
That's what passes for love these days 

No one can complete you or make you whole 
Well love will come to greet you half way 
But the streets are never paved with gold 

Promises are made to be broken haven't you heard. 
You said he'd never break your heart now haven't you learned 
You believed in the words and all that they meant 
Whoaw but love is not some popular song filled with empty sentiment 

That's what passes for love 
That's what passes for love 
That's what passes for love these days 
Oh these days 

These days 

That's what passes for love.
