Ain't No Use is a song I wrote with Stephanie Lewis. It always sounded like a hit to me. Billy Porter is singing. He did this before he was famous. It was produced by Dan Jenks. Marc Shulman is playing guitar and Lorraine Ferro and Tanya Leah are singing BGVs.

Lyrics

Ain’t No Use

How can you ask me where we stand?
What do you expect?
You know this isn’t what I planned
Oh, you were the one who left

But I don’t want to fight
About who’s wrong or right
‘Cause that won’t get us anywhere

Ain’t no use in pointing fingers
Ain’t no use in laying blame
Ain’t no use, what will that bring us?
Only more heartache and pain
Ain’t no use in making each other feel small
Ain’t no use at all

Why do we push love to extremes
From passion to tears?
Both say and do things we don’t mean
When we could find some comfort here

But I don’t want to fight
With you again tonight
‘Cause that won’t get us anywhere

Ain’t no use in making speeches
Ain’t no use in playing games
Ain’t no use, where will that leave us
Back where we started again
Ain’t no use in making each other feel small
Ain’t no use at all

If we want to make changes
Then we both gotta change
So baby, meet me halfway
