Lyrics No Good at Love - June Tabor

You said you wanted me to stay
Still hoping for a better day
But as I turned you heard me say
I am no good at love

Still with my heart I made so free
Expected love accordingly
But now I know that could not be
I am no good at love

I am no good, I'm too intense
To turn my passion into sense
Nor ever proud enough to be
Like those who take love carelessly
I am no good at love

There's different kinds of loneliness
The kind you make yourself's the best
I know because I've tried the rest
I am no good at love

And when self-pity makes me pray
For all the love we threw away
Here in sweet solitude I'll say
I am no good at love
