Lloyd Cole — Loveless
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?
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

You're crying and pleading and you're hell just to be with

And why should I feel blue?
And who's gonna love the loveless if not you?

Lloyd Cole with or without the Commotions is nice. Such a good rehearing.
love lloyd!
Yuck
Lloyd Cole without commotion = Dreamy Sleepy Nightie Snoozy Snooze
Yuk! Can't understand how this could ever have got past the LRC. One of the worst things I've heard on RP - the lyrics are dire.
sucko barfo—this guy sings one note—that's it
More L.C.& t C., please!
sounds like a love sick barry manilow.
Seems this song has been around a long time on RP.
Why. Why! Why does it not get much play?
Not that interesting a tune.

Where is Lloyd, by the way...?
After all this differing posts - here are my 2 cents!
I like LC. This song is not among his best, nevertheless.
His reputation stems from his very first album and a very
few other good songs from various later albums.
Enough for me to like him!
