Lyrics

NOT GONNA CALL THIS LOVE
Words and Music by Cyd Smith
Vocal and Guitar: Cyd Smith; Bass: Keith Lowe

I lie awake all night, I’m drinking heavily
I’ve lost my appetite, This can’t be good for me

I’m not gonna call this love
I’m not gonna call this love

I lose all track of time, My bills are overdue
I’ve bounced a dozen checks, I think too much ‘bout you

But I’m not gonna call this love
I’m not gonna call this love
If this is what they mean by love
Then I don’t want to do love any more

If I don’t give it that name
Maybe it won’t treat me the same
Won’t wear me down to the bone
Won’t leave me blue and alone

The way you say my name
The way you look at me
It takes my breath away
You’ve got your hooks in me.

But I’m not gonna call this love
I’m not gonna call this love
If this is what they mean by love
Then I don’t want to do love any more
