Song - Modern Idea of Love
ALEX
Dear Mom,
It’s me in Germany
In 1917
On August 17th
It’s 5PM
That’s 17 (in Army Time)
It’s Friday evening, you know what that means

Been feeling blue
Between me and you
The things I’ve seen here
The things I’ve seen here

But
When I get back to Minnesota
I’m gonna find the girl I’ve been thinking of
When I get back to Minnesota
With a modern idea of love
Modern idea of love

Dear Pops it’s me
In Germany
You probably know that if you spoke to mom
Too dark to see
Inside of me
The things I’ve seen here
The things I’ve seen here

When I get back to Minnesota
I’m gonna build a life that you’ll be so proud of
When I get back to Minnesota
With a modern idea of love
Modern idea of love

She’ll understand me
And hand in hand we
Will walk together, walk together in truth
To find a love, to find a home, to find a way back to Duluth

When I get back to Minnesota
When I get back to Minnesota
When I get back to Minnesota

When I get back to Minnesota
I’m gonna settle down with help from up above
When I get back to Minnesota
With this modern idea of love
Modern idea of love
Love
Love
Love
