In addition to being among the finest Velvets rips yet - constructed along more or less the same lines as "What Goes On" - "I Don't Love Anyone" is perhaps the most lovable song ever recorded about the inability or is it the refusal to love, a warm and sunny song about having a heart like a storm grate.

"I don't love anyone You're not listening You're playing with something You're playing with yourself

I don't love anyone You're not listening even now You're playing with someone You're playing with someone else

And if there's one thing that I learned when I was a child It's to take a hiding

I don't love anything Not even Christmas Especially not that I don't love anything

No, I don't love anyone Maybe my sister Maybe my baby brother too, yeah I don't love anyone

But if there's one thing that I learned when I was still a child It's to take a hiding Yeah if there's one thing that I learned when I was still at school It's to be alone

Out in the street today The kids are playing, having fun I pass them by I'm not a kid, no I don't love anyone

I met a man today He told me something pretty strange There's always somebody saying something He said, 'The world is as soft as lace.'

But I don't love anyone"
