lyrics

‘No Love Between Us’
Words and Music by Thom Carter. Copyright Verlaine Records 2010.

The power has gone from here,
The power has gone from here,

I’ll wait no more for you,
I’ll wait no more for you,

To free me from this discontent,
To free me from this discontent,

***

By the eyes of those who see,
There’s a hand that’s over me,
Well they’ll swear we were together,
Just as surely as they’ll swear to what they’ve never seen,

And they’ll turn their backs and faces,
As to them do you walk,
As each and every stranger,
Knows the secret of your gold,

Yeah, each and every stranger
Knows the secret of your gold.

***

So you make your way to Brighton,
To a paid for hotel suite,
And even the hotel registrar,
And the day-job porters can see,

That though you went there for the money,
That you come to like the man,
I don’t judge him anymore,
There are others who will do that,

***

There ain’t no love between two strangers,
Ain’t no love in this act,
Ain’t no love without danger,
But it will hold you and break you in the end.

***

As you noose and as you bind him,
As you cover his eyes with a mask,
As he consents for you to be there,
As your employer in his darkness,

So on the floor you lay him,
Till he looks as he’s asleep,
But in his mind he knows,
He’s getting his moneys worth,
And every pound he spends on you is cheap.

***

The power has gone from here,
The power has gone from here,

Because there is no love between us,
There is no love no more,
No, there is no love between us,
Between us that I can give you any more.
