Story Behind The Song

When loving someone is like talking to a wall ...

Lyrics

Ain't no use
© 2014 Bruce Mills (SOCAN)

Ain't no use, telling you the truth
You don't believe a word I say
Ain't no use telling you anything
You don't listen to me anyway

Ain't no reason I should care for you
You won't never let me in
There ain't no reason I should care for you
You don't even know my name

Chorus
You know, it's hard to justify
The way you pass me by when
I try to show you how I feel about you
You don't even hear me
When I say I love you
You won't even look my way - oh

It ain't no use, telling you the truth
You don't believe a word I say
There ain't no use telling you anything at all
You don't listen to me anyway

Oh, oh, oh
What's a man to do - yeah
So bad in love with someone like you

+(Ain't) no purpose in feeling sad and blue
When it don't matter to your mind
Ain't no purpose in being kind and good to you
When all I get is hurting in return

There ain't no point in making sacrifices for you
When you don't even notice what I do
There ain't no point in being faithful and true
When everything I do ain't good enough for you

Chorus
I say, it's hard to justify
The way you pass me by when
I try to show you what I feel about you
You don't even hear me
When I'm sitting near you
You won't even let me hold your hand - oh

There just ai-ai-ai-ain't no use, telling you the truth
You don't believe a word I say
There ain't no use telling you anything at all
You don't listen to me anyway

I might as well be talking to a dog out in the yard
Cause getting through to you is just so hard
It ain't no use
There ain't no reason
Ain't no purpose
There ain't no point
You're just a waste of time that's
Driving me out of my mind
(Lord have mercy, that's true)
