Lloyd Cole - Loveless lyrics

You lie in the heat of a summer haze And turn it into a winter's tale You pull down the blinds and shut out the sky And do what you can to turn the whole thing grey You're crying and pleading and you're hell just to be with And you're everything that I'll ever need So why do you say you love me when you don't? You fall back into the English way Of feeling only guilt because you feel no pain You sit and you stare at the empty page And then you fill it with verse and make the whole thing worse You lie and you cheat your own mind to believing That you don't need anything or anyone So why do you say you love me when you don't? And why should I feel blue when I do? You lie in the heat of a summer haze And turn it into a winter's tale You fall back into the English way Of feeling only guilt because you feel no pain You're crying and pleading and you're hell just to be with And you're everything that I'll ever need So why do you say you love me when you don't? And why should I feel blue? And who's gonna love the loveless if not you?
