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 that failure′s no success at all

The bridge at midnight trembles
Country doctor rambles
Banker′s nieces seek perfection
Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring

The wind blows like a hammer
Night blows cold and rainy
My love, she's like some raven
At my window with a broken wing

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
