lyrics

I burn your incense to excess
I drink your oriental tea
I wear the vest you gave me constantly
But that doesn't mean I love

I talk about you to fault
I kiss the hymn of your name
I keep a picture of you next to me
But that doesn't mean I love you

That doesn't mean I love you
That doesn't mean I love you

I play your music too damn loud
My neighbors complain to me
I can't begin to tell them how I feel
But that doesn't mean I love you

That doesn't mean I love you
That doesn't mean I love you
That doesn't mean I love you
That doesn't mean I love you

I dream about you to extremes
I feel your body next to mine
Intermingled and intertwined
But that doesn't mean I love you

That doesn't mean I love you
That doesn't mean I love you
That doesn't mean I love you
That doesn't mean I love you
