How Can We Be Lovers?

How Can We Be Lovers?

A Poem by MandaBear
"

inspired by Micheal Bolton's "How can we be lovers?" (I know no one likes him so don't judge me XD )

"
How can we be lovers when we can't even stand each other?
All we do is scream and yell at each other 
We almost know nothing about one another 
It's only when we are drunk do we ever care 

I said I loved you but I must have lied 
I was wrong because it was a drunken truth 
We only know how to get drunk, 
And how to sleep together 

How can we be lovers?
How can we be more than a drunken fling?
If that is all we are good at being,
Is there any hope for us?

I said I love you but maybe I didn't have to lie 
Maybe it wasn't a drunken truth
Maybe I do want more 
Maybe I want us to be lovers 

You make me feel so good inside 
You make me feel wanted 
You make me feel needed 
Even if it's the beer talking
I want us to be a sober love 
No more screaming 
No more yelling 
No more meaningless sex 
I want us to be real lovers 

Question is...... How can we be lovers if we can't even stand each other?
