Lyrics
You Can't Call It Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's the same rain the same pain
The same picture in the same frame
Cold close smoldering hearts
And it can't burst into flames then
Again it can't go out
My passion is a nightingale with a
Sword throat
A dolphin in the Thames it's a wasted love
It's a telephone ringing in A empty house
It's motherless child
You can say it's a good thing
You can say it's a bad thing
You can call it anything you want
But you can't call it love
No. you can't call it love
I'm lost among the stars
Another wishful one is waiting in the wings
To pick up where the last one put you down
To dry your eyes and fashion your new crown
Of fox gloves and steel strings
You can say it's a good thing
You can say it's a bad thing
You can call it anything you want
But you can't call it love
No. you can't call it love
No. you can't call it love
The same town's still standing
But the changes come creepin' through
My dreams
But it's a little late for praying
When your world is already on its knees
And on and on and on and on
My nightmare's a devil's dog on a rolling log
Got no control, no sense of time, its
Just a rhyme
And a banshee hollers in the dead of night
It's a homeless ghost
You can say it's a good thing
You can say it's a bad thing
You can call it anything you want
But you can't call it love
No. you can't call it love
No. you can't call it love
Can't call it love
