LOVE WITH NO STORY by Gloria Buono-Daly © 2026

[Verse 1]

Thousands of hot lips and hearts flood his page

“I adore you,” “I love you”—every comment sounds the same

She knows the watch he’s wearing, every place he’s been

Tracks every update—but has she ever really known him

A stranger writes back wearing his name

Swears he’s the real one, and she believes his claim

[Pre-Chorus1]

Thousands of hot lips and hearts

Floating up a screen

What could any of them mean

It’s still all... make-believe...

[Chorus1]

That’s heartless love, all chatter and glow

A crass confession to a man she doesn’t know

It shouts on the screen, then fades away by dawn

Heartless love may have words

But hollow at the core

It doesn’t even know the score...

That’s why love with no story

Is no love at all

It’s just love with no story

[Verse 2]

Maybe it’s the famous face, maybe it’s the gold

Maybe it’s the thought that his smile is hers alone

She sends another “love you” where everybody sees

Then checks to see if he replied, still waiting to be seen

Another “It’s really me” lights up her screen

Thinking he’s the man she’s dreamed he’d be

[Pre-Chorus2]

But love is more than wanting

Someone’s light to shine on you

It’s what you give in silence

When there’s nothing left to prove

[Chorus2]

That’s heartless love, all chatter and glow

A crass confession to a man she doesn’t know

It shouts on the screen, then fades away by dawn

Heartless love may have words

But hollow at the core...

It doesn’t even know the score...

That’s why love with no story

Is no love at all

It’s just love with no story

[Bridge]

I don’t need to fill his page or claim to have his heart

Or dress a passing fantasy up as a work of art

I write my truth and let the music speak

He’s a real person, not a cheap dream on a screen....

No answer owed,... no sign to find...

Just honest feeling, with no claim on his time…

[Bridge]

I’ll sing the truth inside me—

Let the whole world hear

And hold the highest note on—

And let him be...

[Final Chorus]

Heartfelt love needs no chatter or show

It lives in the moments only two people know

Love is in the staying when the spectacle is gone

Heartless love knows the words

But, True love knows the song...

That’s why love with no story

Is no love at all

It’s just love with no story

Nothing at all…

Oooo...

Nothing at all...

[Outro]

No fake hot lips, no fake “I love yous”

No vows I can’t defend

Just my own heart, honest and true 

Just who I am—no need to pretend

Just my story, all my own...

Ooh...

Love is my story, all my own...
