Lindsey Buckingham
Love Minus Zero/No Limit
[Verse 1]
My love, she speaks like silence
Without ideals or violence
She doesn't have to say she's faithful
But she's true like ice, like fire

[Verse 2]
People carry roses
Make promises by the hours
My love laughs like the flowers Valentines can't buy her

[Verse 3]
In the dime stores and bus stations
People talk of situations
Read books, repeat quotations
Draw conclusions on the wall

[Verse 4]
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

[Verse 5]
The cloak and dagger dangles
Madams light the candles
In ceremonies of the horsemen
Even the pawn must hold a grudge
[Verse 6]
Statues made of matchsticks crumble into one another
My love winks, she does not bother
She knows too much to argue or to judge

[Verse 7]
The bridge at midnight trembles
The country doctor rambles
Bankers' nieces seek perfection
Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring

[Chorus]
The wind howls like a hammer
The night goes rainy
My love, she's like some raven
At my window with a broken wing

[Verse 8]
My love, she speaks like silence
Without ideals or violence
She doesn't have to say she's faithful
To all the gifts that wise men bring

[Chorus]
The wind howls like a hammer
The night goes rainy
My love, she's like some raven
At my window with a broken wing
