Same bed, same camp
We just don't get along
Same wind, same desires
This doesn't happen to us often
We expect, we expect
To live the same life
And yet and yet
Only that which separates us unites us
I love it, you don't like it
I go out, you stay here
I hurry, you left
It's the day and the night
I dream that I'm flying
You stay pinned to the ground
That which unites us escapes us...
Same breath, same yell
Why doesn't one nor the other understand
You pretend, I act as if
Flowing in our veins was the same blood
And yet and yet
The fights, the unsaid words
We learn and the time that it takes
For the blacks or whites to blend
I love it, you don't like it
I go out, you stay here
I hurry, you left
It's the day and the night
You dream that you take off
I stay pinned to the ground
That which unites us escapes us....
Catches us...
Aspires us...
Inspires us...
And I keep smiling
And you keep silent
You fear the worst
I hope
Opposites attract
As I keep smiling
When you keep silent
When you sigh
I hope
That opposites attract
Opposites attract
