It’s Not Love (but It’s Not Bad) Lyrics

She was always there each time i needed you,
Holding 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 driving me mad;
And i don’t have to wonder who she’s had.
No, it’s not love, but it’s not bad

I turn to her when you leave me alone,
Sometimes even when you’re here, and 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 driving me mad;
And i don’t have to wonder who she’s had.
No, it’s not love, but it’s not bad
