Story behind the song

Written sometime between 1977 and 1979, this has always been one of my favourites. Nothing really spectacular about it, it's just an attempt to write a song from a different point of view (a la "Love Stinks" by J. Geils).

Lyrics

Well look at you
You’ve got that silly look on your face once again
Something’s wrong but that’s all right, you can’t explain
Just a stirring that never needs told
Something new that’s something so old

And I’m not in love
That feeling’s not on me tonight
I’m not in love
No such luck, I’m free tonight

Love sounds so great
But all its given me is weight on my back
It won’t go away cause it keeps coming back
An awful pain that feels so good
But never quite like I thought it would

And I’m not in love
That feeling’s not on me tonight
I’m not in love
No such luck, I’m free tonight

Just wait awhile
I’ll hope that your love will keep going on
One day you’ll find out it’s not always fun
I remember the times in my past
I don’t believe that I thought it would last

And I’m not in love
That feeling’s not on me tonight
I’m not in love
No such luck, I’m free tonight
