The Name of This Thing Is Not Love Elvis Costello & The Imposters

[Verse 1]
There's a part of this feeling that I just cannot kill
But the name of this thing is not love
And I can't take a potion and I won't take a pill
So it tortures me still
But the name of this thing is not love
Then you start entertaining such a terrible thought
Life is so very short
And the name of this thing is not love

[Verse 2]
There's a bruise on her arm and some blood on the floor
But the name of this thing is not love
And they're taunting some girl that they claim to adore
She can't take anymore
But the name of this thing is not love
And who in the world do you think that you are
That you push me this far?
The name of this thing is not love
Oh

[Refrain]
The name of this thing is not love
The name of this thing is not love

[Bridge]
He thinks of her still, although you'd never guess
He's trying hard to forget her
The occasional moments that he'll always bless
Watching her dress, for worse or for better
