\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019m caught in a trap<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve never met anyone so opposite of me.<\/p>\n

No matter what, you always disagree.<\/p>\n

We met through mutual friends.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s how a thing like this begins.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Somehow, we end up being together.<\/p>\n

If I say it\u2019s canvas, you say it\u2019s leather.<\/p>\n

If I say it\u2019s black, you don\u2019t say it\u2019s white.<\/p>\n

You say \u201dIt\u2019s blue, \u00a0so don\u2019t get uptight.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I hope I don\u2019t fall in love with you.<\/p>\n

If so, I won\u2019t know what to do?<\/p>\n

They say opposites attract.<\/p>\n

I am praying that\u2019s not a fact.<\/p>\n

If I fall in love with you<\/p>\n

I can only end up being a fool.<\/p>\n

How could anything be so cruel?<\/p>\n

I just don\u2019t know what to do.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I tried to arrange things to be safe.<\/p>\n

That night came & things didn\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n

One person was sick with the flu.<\/p>\n

So I ended up, again, with you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

No matter how I try we can\u2019t stay apart.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s really starting to affect my heart.<\/p>\n

It starts beating faster when I see you.<\/p>\n

Due to inner stress, or something new?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I hope I don\u2019t fall in love with you.<\/p>\n

If so, I won\u2019t know what to do?<\/p>\n

They say opposites attract.<\/p>\n

I am praying that\u2019s not a fact.<\/p>\n

If I fall in love with you<\/p>\n

I can only end up being a fool.<\/p>\n

How can anything be so cruel?<\/p>\n

I just don\u2019t know what to do.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I have to break the loop. This can\u2019t go on.<\/p>\n

I am in a tither from dusk till dawn.<\/p>\n

We will never be lovers, please take the cue.<\/p>\n

Quit acting like you haven\u2019t the slightest clue.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Things got turned around & here we are again.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe see you two together a lot\u201d friends said with a grin.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere may be something happening here.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it. I\u2019m done. Give me another beer.<\/p>\n
