    Ain't No Love Lyrics:
    Maybe that it would do me good
    If I believed there were a god
    Cut in the starry firmament
    But as it is that's just a lie
    And I'm here eating up the boredom
    On an island of cement
    Give me your ecstasy I'll feel it
    Open window and I'll steal it
    Baby like it's heaven sent
    This ain't no love that's guiding me
    Some days i'm bursting at the seams
    With all my half remembered dreams
    And then it shoots me down again
    I feel the dampness as it creeps
    I hear you coughing in your sleep
    Beneath a broken window pane
    Tomorrow girl i'll buy you chips
    A lollipop to stain your lips
    And it'll all be right as rain
    This ain't no love that's guiding me
    This ain't no love that's guiding me
    No it ain't no love guiding me
    No it ain't no love guiding me
    No it ain't no love guiding me
    This ain't no love that's guiding me
    This ain't no love that's guiding me
    On winter trees the fruit of rain
    Is hanging trembling in the branches
    Like a thousand diamond buds
    And waiting there in every pause
    That old familiar fear that claws you
    Tells you nothing ain't no good
    Then pulling back you see it all
    Down here so laughable and small
    Hardly a quiver in the dirt
    This ain't no love that's guiding me

    This deserves way more recognition just for the instrumentals and vocals... lyrics are great as well but still... wow.

    I had the good fortune of watching David perform this song in an old church last November. It was one of his first gigs after lockdown and he was really going for it - you could tell he'd missed performing live. His voice was amplified by the amazing acoustics, and during the chorus my jaw was on the floor and tears were in my eyes. The most incredible live performance I've ever heard.

    David Gray is the best Singer song writer out and has been for some time. I saw him in concert in Cincinnati, on the "Draw the Line" tour, and it was beyond phenomenal! I've been to apx. 60 concerts, and none of them come close to DG's Cincinnati show. He played Non stop for nearly 3 hours. Everyone else I've seen since, look and sound like 2nd rate amateurs compared to DG. I don't understand how he can be as underrated as he is? Everyone that hears him, loves him! Elton John is the only Singer Songwriter I can think of that even comes close to DG in talent, ability and body of work. Outside of a very rare few, I don't flippantly use the "Greatest of All-Time" label, but when it comes to music, I believe DG is worthy of that designation. I know I'm sounding like a 12 year old fan girl, but he's a musical genius!

    Somone please explain, why is this not like a chart nr1.... I just don't get it. The lyrics is like romantic Bob Dylan-like poetic one, the verse is like the most original, beautiful one I've ever heard... it really should be quite a hit.

      Can't read the torygraph article cos it's behind a paywall, but for me it's a sad hymn to the numbness and cynicism that became endemic in the UK at the end of the 20thC/early 21stC. He's even calling it out in himself in those lines.
      The genius of this song is that the (gorgeous) chorus only appears once. DG stops it in its tracks from become a stadium-singalong-type song, and in that act, remains true to the spirit of the song.
