Story Behind The Song

What is left after she walks out the door, but a man's utter defiance and insistence that he's got an answer to his looming problems?

Song Description

She's taken everything he had, and his answer is to try and take back the love songs he sang to her.

Lyrics

I'm Not Singing Anymore Love Songs

Remember somewhere back in time, When I pledged to you my heart
I didn't realize I'd crossed a line, That would only tear me apart
I was just a fool in love, singing a silly love song
didn't know the meaning of, Certain you'd never do me wrong

But I'm, not singing anymore love songs
That's one thing I won't do no more
I, stopped singing love songs
The day you walked right out my front door

Fools in love, are there any other kind?, Fool me twice shame on me
When your fantasy starts to unwind, Look in the mirror tell me what is it you see?
You think love's something to count on, believe this time is for real
By time to get your head screwed back on, It's too late to renegotiate the deal

So I'm, not singing any more love songs
Just not doing that anymore
I, stopped singing love songs
The day I watched you walk right out my front door.

Bridge: I'm not singing any more love songs
I'm not giving up my heart
Not keeping you safe and warm, Or sheltering you from the storm
Don't say the words, don't even start


I'm not singing anymore love songs
I'm changing my act
I don't need some silly song, about a love that's done me wrong
Been there, done that

If we're guilty of the good things we don't do, then honey, we're guilty as sin
I don't expect to get over you; Some battles you just can't win
If you see me at some future time; Don't stop, just walk on by
I don't care about the reasons or the rhyme, Or explanations about why you said goodbye

I'm not singing you anymore love songs
I can't do it anymore
I stopped singing you love songs
The day I watched you walk out my front door
