\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Odd Couple<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, there you go again. Saying I\u2019m a looser.<\/p>\n

Just because I don\u2019t want to do it your way.<\/p>\n

All you need to know is that I\u2019m not a snoozer.<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t miss the opportunity to play.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We go round and round about the same thing.<\/p>\n

Why must it always be your way?<\/p>\n

We need to look at what we both bring.<\/p>\n

We both need to have our say.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rulers only listen when they are losing.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, they always get their way.<\/p>\n

Lovers will still love if they are losing.<\/p>\n

But, they are better if they have their say.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The day will start out fine with plans you made.<\/p>\n

But, let me change just one little thing.<\/p>\n

All of a sudden, you\u2019re done with the charade.<\/p>\n

Lightning strikes again \u00a0into our fling.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You will not see any view but your own.<\/p>\n

Rational arguments is like \u00a0spitting into the wind.<\/p>\n

They come back twisted & hurt to the bone.<\/p>\n

This is definitely coming to a rapid end..<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rulers only listen when they are losing.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, they always get their way.<\/p>\n

Lovers will still love if they are losing.<\/p>\n

But, they are better if they have their say.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After a month or two of not seeing you.<\/p>\n

You still will not discuss the problem.<\/p>\n

You must think no one can see through you.<\/p>\n

But, this does not bring a solution.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After all is said and done, it\u2019s sad.<\/p>\n

The good times were some of the very best.<\/p>\n

But, they don\u2019t outweigh the bad.<\/p>\n

Even so, I don\u2019t think of you any less.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rulers only listen when they are losing.<\/p>\n

Otherwise, they always get their way.<\/p>\n

Lovers will still love \u00a0if they are losing.<\/p>\n

But, they are better if they have their say.<\/p>\n
