-Verse 1

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

-Verse 2

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 Am

 this ain't no love that's guiding me

 this ain't no love that's guiding me

no i-t a-in't no love guiding me

no i-t a-in't no love guiding me

no i-t a-in'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 Am

  finish -

this ain't no love that's guiding me
