The Pannacotta Army - No For An Answer

from SpinTunes 21 Round 2 by Spintunes

/

about

Caveat - My technical music knowledge is not accomplished so although I'm certain I've made key changes, I may not have identified the actual keys of those changes correctly, but the following is my interpretation.
The song starts off and is mainly in the key of E major. The section after the second verse ("It's self-delusion...") initially switches to A major and then to G major. The third verse reverts to E major but then the next section ("No sign of...") changes first to C# major, then F# major ?? (I think...I'm a bit sketchy on this bit)! The song ends back on E major.

lyrics

In and out of love
You’d think I’d had enough
But here I am once again standing at your door
Over and over
Dead drunk or sober
I keep on coming back looking for more

What does it matter if I’m stubborn or a fool
Seems I can never get over you

You once admired my persistence
Now it won’t make any difference
You made your mind up long in the past
But I can’t take no for an answer
Somehow I still think there’s a chance I’ll
Find a place in your heart

It’s self-delusion, I can’t deny
Like the faults I try to justify

Another winter and summer
I ain’t getting any younger
But every season finds me here again
Time has no meaning
It doesn’t lessen what I’m feeling
I know it’ll always be the same

No sign of weakening your resolve
But I won’t let the doubts take hold
