Love Minus Zero/No Limit Songtext

von Ricky Nelson

My love she speaks like silence
Without ideals or violence
She doesn't have to say she's faithful
Yet she's true, like ice, like fire
People carry roses - make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers -
Valentines can't buy her

In the dime stores and bus stations
People talk of situations
Read books, repeat quotations
Draw conclusions on the wall
Some speak of the future
My love, she speaks softly
She knows there's no success like failure
And the failure's no success at all

The bridge at midnight trembles
The country doctor rambles
Bankers, nieces, seek perfection
Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring
The wind blows like a hammer
The night blows cold and rainy
My love, she's like some raven,
At my window with a broken wing
