I Don't Really Love You Anymore Lyrics

True, I'd give my right arm
To keep you safe from harm
And, true, for you I'd move to Ecuador
And I'd keep a little farm
Chop wood to keep you warm
But I don't really love you anymore

I don't have to love you now if I don't wish to
I won't see you anyhow if that's an issue

Because I am a gentleman
Think of me as just your fan
Who remembers every dress you ever wore
Just the bad comedian
Your new boyfriend's better than
'Cause I don't really love you anymore

There'll be some day when your eyes do not enthrall me
I'll be numb, I realize you'll never call me

'Cause I've read your horoscope
And now I've given up all hope
So I don't really love you anymore
'Cause I've read your horoscope
And now I've given up all hope
So I don't really love you anymore

what a bittersweet song.

What a sarcastic song. The title and lyrics are such a lie, and you can tell that even though the music is so upbeat, he's just lying to himself and trying to make himself believe that he doesn't really love a certain girl anymore when he obviously does. And I certainly can relate to this song, though it's with a guy and not a girl.

Isn't Stephin Merritt gay?

What if the title is sincere? It's about the later stages of getting over you. I'm already disillusioned with whatever made me love you in the first place. But I still loved you enough to feel your wounds, spent enough time staring at you to be your personal biographer. And loving you cost me too much energy to throw it all away.

"think of me as: just your fan, who remembers every dress you ever wore just a bad comedian your new boyfriend's better than,"

haha, it's sad I relate to those lines, but I do.

I've listened to this song so many times, it's ridiculous. definitely one of my favorites from this album! i love how playful it is, and the way it's so obvious that the title is a lie. =P

This song has a lot in common with "You and Me and the Moon", musically.
