Ain’t No Song Lyrics by James Taylor

Walking Man

1974

There ain't no melody
And I can't find a harmony
And if there were a way to say it
You know I would have played it
Well, I'm a man of few words
Trying to find a rhyme
And finally it occurred to me
That I'm wasting my time
There ain't no rhyme or reason
Isn't no time or season
Ain't no way around it
I know I would have found it
There ain't no song in the whole wide world
Could hardly sing about you
There ain't no song in the whole wide world
To tell you the way that I feel
Painters use their eyes
To show us what they see
But when that canvas dries
We all see it differently
There ain't black or white
Tthere ain't no day or night
There ain't no way around it
You know I would have found it
There ain't no song in the whole wide world
Could hardly sing about you
There ain't no song in the whole wide world
To tell you the way that I feel
No there ain't no melody
And I can't find no harmony
And if there were a way to say it
You know I would have played it
There just ain't no song in the whole wide world
Could hardly sing about you
There ain't no song in the whole wide world
To tell you the way I feel now
Singin' no, no, no, no, I might as well pack it on up
Not even this song's gonna tell you the way I feel now
(No song, no song, no song)
Not even this song's gonna tell you the way I feel baby
