Never Going Nowhere Lyrics

Some words will cut you
Like the sharpest blade
I don't love you anymore
I don't love you anymore
Nothing is different
But something has changed
I don't love you anymore
I don't love you anymore
As I speak these words
I cant believe what I'm saying
I don't love you anymore
I don't love you anymore
I keep my thoughts in little boxes labelled A-Z

Some words can break the skin
And let the daylight in
I don't love you anymore
I don't love you anymore
Your once charming foibles
Now drive me up the wall
I don't love you anymore
I don't love you anymore
I keep my thoughts in little boxes
Boxes underneath the bed
Under the bed with your photograph
And the image is fading

Time has flown
You're all alone
You've always known
It's never going nowhere
Act your age
Turn the page
Leave the stage
It's time to move on
And me and you
How high we flew
We always knew
It's never going nowhere

I keep my thoughts in little boxes
Boxes underneath the bed
Under the bed with your photograph
And the image is fading

Time has flown
You're all alone
You've always known
It's never going nowhere
Act your age
Turn the page
Leave the stage
It's time to move on
And me and you
How high we flew
We always knew
It's never going nowhere

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Isn't it sad how The Bluetones have so few comments on such fantastic songs. One of the most under-rated bands in my lifetime.

Clearly the song is about falling out of love or the realisation that they weren't in love to start with.

By far the best song on that (disappointing) album.
