歌曲名 No Love Today

歌手名 Chris Smither

I don't know much when I knew less

And I was heartbroke for the first time

drowning in my tears

I went looking for a lifeline

Trying to find some comfort

A simple tender touch

Searching for some little cure

That would not cost too much

And I could hear that produce wagon on the street

I could hear that farmer singing

As I cried myself to sleep

I got ba-na-na watermelon peaches by the pound

Sweet corn mirleton mo' better than in town

I got okra enough to choke ya

Beans of every kind

If hungry is what's eatin' you

I'll sell you peace of mind

But this ain't what you came to hear me say

And I hate to disappoint you

But I got no love today

I got no love today

I got no love today

No love today

I could not love to save myself

From lonesome desperation

Everything I thought was love

Was worthless imitation

My concept of commitment

Was to take all you could give

I thought the cheapest thrills I loved

Were teachin' me to live

But nothin' seemed to last or see me through

Nothin' but that little song

That I still sing for you

I got ba-na-na watermelon peaches by the pound

Sweet corn mirleton mo' better than in town

I got okra enough to choke ya

Beans of every kind

If hungry is what's eatin' you

I'll sell you peace of mind

But this ain't what you came to hear me say

And I hate to disappoint you

But I got no love today

I got no love today

I got no love today

No love today

No love today none tomorrow

Not now not forever

You can't see what comes for free

I think you much too clever

For your own good I will tell you

What's right before your eyes

Intelligence is no defense

Against what this implies

In the end no one will sell you what you need

You can't buy it off the shelf

You got to grow it from the seed

I got ba-na-na watermelon peaches by the pound

Sweet corn mirleton mo' better than in town

I got okra enough to choke ya

Beans of every kind

If hungry is what's eatin' you

I'll sell you peace of mind

But this ain't what you came to hear me say

And I hate to disappoint you

But I gonna disappoint you

I got no love today

I got no love today

I got no love today

No love today
