Story Behind The Song
No back story. Just pure craft.

They have broken up. He's telling her he doesn't love her any more, but he doesn't love her any less; i.e., he's still in love with her. Just a simple play on words. A cute song reminiscent of the 40s or 50s.

Lyrics
VERSE
I've found a brand new way to walk (he's walkin')
I've learned a brand new way to talk (he's talkin')
Fancy free, look at me, headin' out the door
'Cause I don't love you any more
VERSE
I'm catchin' eyes from pretty girls (hey, baby)
I'm learnin' brand new kinds of twirls (don't mean maybe)
Steppin' lively, feelin' good, on the old dance floor
Since I don't love you anymore
CHORUS
Now every day I find a way to think about you less
Some new way to forget about your smile, your sweet caress
I don't love you any more; still, I must confess
I don't love you any less
VERSE
I see your face at the picture show (good lookin')
You're with me everywhere I go (what's cookin'?)
Is it you? I need a clue; what do I have in store?
I don't know nothin' any more
Repeat CHORUS
BRIDGE
Can't you see my mind is all confused?
But I won't make another day without you
SOLO
Repeat CHORUS
TAG (la-da-da-da... melody to verse)
