Ain't no love

Maybe that it would do me good
If I believed there were a god
Cut in the starry firmament
But as it is that´s just a lie
And I´m here eating up the boredom
On an island of cement
Give me your ecstasy I´ll feel it
Open window and I´ll steal it
Baby like it´s heaven sent
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
Some days i´m bursting at the seams
With all my half remembered dreams
And then it shoots me down again
I feel the dampness as it creeps
I hear you coughing in your sleep
Beneath a broken window pane
Tomorrow girl i´ll buy you chips
A lollipop to stain your lips
And it´ll all be right as rain
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
No it ain´t no love guiding me
No it ain´t no love guiding me
No it ain´t no love guiding me
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
On winter trees the fruit of rain
Is hanging trembling in the branches
Like a thousand diamond buds
And waiting there in every pause
That old familiar fear that claws you
Tells you nothing ain´t no good
Then pulling back you see it all
Down here so laughable and small
Hardly a quiver in the dirt
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
If I believed there were a god
Cut in the starry firmament
But as it is that´s just a lie
And I´m here eating up the boredom
On an island of cement
Give me your ecstasy I´ll feel it
Open window and I´ll steal it
Baby like it´s heaven sent
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
Some days i´m bursting at the seams
With all my half remembered dreams
And then it shoots me down again
I feel the dampness as it creeps
I hear you coughing in your sleep
Beneath a broken window pane
Tomorrow girl i´ll buy you chips
A lollipop to stain your lips
And it´ll all be right as rain
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
No it ain´t no love guiding me
No it ain´t no love guiding me
No it ain´t no love guiding me
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
On winter trees the fruit of rain
Is hanging trembling in the branches
Like a thousand diamond buds
And waiting there in every pause
That old familiar fear that claws you
Tells you nothing ain´t no good
Then pulling back you see it all
Down here so laughable and small
Hardly a quiver in the dirt
This ain´t no love that´s guiding me
