Negative Love — текст песни (John Wesley Harding)

Negative love
Skeptical lies beneath the frown
Negative love
You`re always putting other people down
Then they`re gone
As they fade away well who`s to say that you were wrong?

Negative love
The radio`s playing my request
Negative love
You lie before me unimpressed
Why say yes?
When you know all the ways to say “no” best?

Please don`t make an exception for me
Don`t make an exception
There`s no hope for me and you
�Cause I`m a little negative too

Cynical you
I see the look that`s in your eyes
Cynical you
And it`s saying I don`t sympathize
No surprise
Only the naive believe in love and other lies and

Please don`t make an exception for me
Don`t make an exception
There`s no hope for me and you
�Cause I`m a little negative too
I`m a little negative too

We`re the wrong side of one
I should change my name to John (?)
Or maybe we`re onto something
Could we end up positive after all?

Please don`t lower your standards for me
Don`t lower your standards
There`s no hope for me and you
�Cause I`m a little negative too

There`s nothing for me and you
Cause I`m a little negative
I`m a little cynical
I`m a little negative
I`m a little critical
I`m a little negative too
