Oil and Water
Loving you was like grasping oil
Always treated you like you were royal
Only to have you slip out of my fingertips.
Loving you had me inhaling flames
Didn't know who to blame
While your heat consumed the ice.
Loving you has me sweating cats and dogs
That the next gentlemen will leave me without first writing an epilogue
You've robbed so much of me - there's no point of returning home.
But loving you has also taught me forgiveness
That true love is actually limitless
So no matter how much my head throbs and my heart aches
I will never cease the pursuit of stumbling upon True Love's face.
