Any Love Lyrics

[Intro]
I tried to move on, but I know I'm a fool
Any love that ain't you is a love that ain't true
Thought I was strong, but my heart hasn't moved
'Cause any love that ain't you is a love that ain't true (Mm)

[Verse 1]
Dancing in the moonlight
Everything just felt right
I should've known better
I guess I know better now
Someone I was seen by
Someone who is so mine
Should've known better
I guess I know better now

[Pre-Chorus]
I can spend my whole life searchin' for that feeling
But it won't be enough
You are my story, I would rewrite
So I could stop you leaving
'Cause this ending's all wrong

[Chorus]
Try to move on, but I know I'm a fool
Any love that ain't you is a love that ain't true
I thought I was strong, but my heart hasn't moved
'Cause any love that ain't you is a love that ain't true (Mm)
[Verse 2]
Cryin' on the drive home
I've never seen you so low
I said, "It gets better"
It never got better this time
Even though it's over
I just need you to know that you
Made my life better
I'll never forget our time

[Pre-Chorus]
Story I could rewrite so I could stop you leaving
'Cause this ending's all wrong

[Chorus]
Try to move on, but I know I'm a fool (I'm a fool)
Any love that ain't you is a love that ain't true
I thought I was strong, but my heart hasn't moved
'Cause any love that ain't you is a love that ain't true (Mm)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Dermot Kennedy say about "Any Love"?
Genius Answer

Anytime anyone says to me, ‘Oh, this is a real departure for you sonically from what you’ve done previously;’ I don’t like that. It sounds negative, but with this one, it feels like a departure from what I’ve done previously but I absolutely love it and it feels different. The vocal processing gives it life and a real warmth. It has my favourite lyric on the album when it says, ‘Someone was seen by, someone who was so mine.’ It came together very easily.
