There is no evidence, dear, to convict us
Nothing that’s touching your heart to mine
No solid line that could ever connect us
Nothing in writing
Nothing in writing
Nothing uniting us now 

Words by design disappear as we speak them
Love, undefined, disappears just the same
Promises written, it’s harder to break them
But we’ve nothing in writing
Nothing in writing
Nothing uniting us now 

Love opened wide like a paper umbrella
One heavy rain, and my shelter was gone
Nothing to hide but the kissin’ and tellin’
Nothing uniting us now

I told my tale to a train that was leaving
A tide that was ebbing, a moon on the wane
And when they return, it’s your name they’ll be breathing
But there’s nothing in writing
Nothing in writing
Nothing uniting us now
