Don't Call It Love

Bruce Robison

Yes, I do come here often but I don't call it alone

I've got a house up on Third but I wouldn't call it a home

These days I have secrets and I don't call them dreams

Yes, I work every morning but I don't call that a life

Yes, I once was married but I won't call me a wife

No, I don't mind smalltalk if it says what it means

So don't call it love, it ain't the same

I ain't no kid, this ain't no game

I'd say the words if the words were enough

You can hold me tonight but don't call it love

Yes, I've had some heartaches and I've had good times

Though I wouldn't call it hard-luck, the choices were mine

Thank God there's some music, did I interrupt your scene

Do I believe in heaven

Yeah, but I don't mean the star

I think it's all around us, maybe not in this bar

I'm out on the ocean and the truth is my last line

But, don't call it love, it ain't the same

I ain't no kid, this ain't no game

I'd say the words if the words were enough

You can hold me tonight but don't call it love

No, I'd say the words if the words were enough

You can hold me tonight but don't call it love

No, don't call it love, no, don't call it love
