Leave Me Not Love

I have a love
And it never fades
And it feels like either will the pain
Your name emblazed on every day
Afraid I'll lose the memory of your face
But our love will never fade

I have a love
And it never fades
You lifted us from the mundane
And then you wrote Drive
And immortalised our right to life
And a crisps aisle all in one line
Mate
Pain takes time

I have a love
And it never fades
I found your old Myspace page on the bus today
One song playlist loads up straight away
And sunk me right back to the source of our teenage pain
And now on the bus, on that morning commute
That song on your Myspace speaks to me with truth
If I knew what was wrong
I would tell you
If I knew what was wrong
I would tell you

I have a love
And it never fades
I have a love that never shakes, that never moves and that never breaks
I have a love and it never takes
I have a love that stays
And it's all love and glory on your name
Til I see out my last days
And find the ways to fight the pain emblazed
I have a love and it never fades
All praise to my best mates

It’s been a long road layed up on the shelf
Trying to heal the self
But those I love brought me back to health
And I ain't never needed nothin' else
I ain't never needed nothin' else
I ain't never needed nothin' else

I have a love
And it never fades
I have a love that never shakes, that never moves and that never breaks
I have a love and it never takes
I have a love that stays
And it's all love and glory on your name
Til I see out my last days
And find the ways to fight the pain emblazed
I have a love and it never fades
All praise to my best mates

And there's rain
Dear God there's rain
That will never go away
There's days and days of every kind of pain
Nothing stays the same
Other than the never ending weight of shame

And there's shame
Dear fucking god there's shame
It's that Dear James excess pain that stays
What happened to my best mate?
I have a love
And it's full of pain

Crying like a baby
In my momma’s arms
The day they came to tell me
You were gone

Well, we sang in the same places
We were a double-draw
And the folks came to see us
Had it all
You were gone
