No Love - Joan Armatrading

Well you started out wanting my body

And I didn’t mind

'Cos we liked each other

And it also helped to pass the time

Well everybody dreams of one

And now I want you

And not just for fun

But if you’ve got no love to give

Baby don’t give it here

I wanted you to be my lover

I would be your friend

And I’d wear the purple shirt

'Cos it makes you laugh

And I would too

Well if there’s anything I can do

I wanna do it

And if I had no love to give

I wouldn’t give it to you

Your best friend’s friend told someone

I was the hurting kind

And they’ve planted that seed

And it’s growing there in your mind

Well if you’re looking for a permanent mate

Just accept me as your fate

'Cos if I had no love to give

I wouldn’t give it to you
