Verse 1:

She was always there each time I needed you,

holding on to me like I held on to you,

We still don't have what you and I once had;

No, It's Not Love, But it's not bad.

No, It's Not Love, not like ours was. It's Not Love,

but it keeps love from driving me mad;

And I don't have to wonder who she's had.

No, It's Not Love, But it's not bad

Verse 2:

I turn to her when you leave me alone,

sometimes even when you're here, and you're still gone.

She'e slowly changing what you leave so sad;

No, It's Not Love, But it's not bad.
