She was always there each time I needed you
Holdin' 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 drivin' me mad
And I don't have to wonder who she's had
No, it's not love, but it's not bad
(Instrumental Break)
I turn to her when you leave me alone
Sometimes even when you're here but you're still gone
She's slowly changing what you leave so sad
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 drivin' me mad
And I don't have to wonder who she's had
No, it's not love, but it's not bad
No, it's not love, but it's not bad
