I hate the way you brush your teeth

and leave toothpaste in the sink,

I hate the way you talk to me,

and sometimes how you think

I hate the way you dress and how

your clothes, they never match,

I hate the way you comb your hair

and think you're such a catch

I hate the way you drive your car

and blare the radio loud

then park it on the side of the road

and get out looking proud

I hate the way you smell like rum

when you come home late and kiss me

then you wonder why I get mad

when I refuse to to get cozy

I hate the way you stole my heart

and claimed it for your own

I hate the way you kiss my neck

and the way you make me moan

I hate it when you leave the house

without a kiss goodbye

it makes me feel alone inside

but then you ask me why

I hate when you don't understand

the way you make me feel

Don't you see the way I look

when you ooze your sex appeal?

I hate the way I can't hate you

when you make me mad

you and I, it would seem

are a very strong dyad

There are many things I cannot say

I cannot find the words

but if I could I'd fill your heart

with thousands of fluttering birds

I love the way your arms are strong

and lift me off the floor

I love the way you speak to me

and tell me "je t'amour"

I love the way you watch me smile

and stare into my eyes

I love the way you steal my voice

when we say our good-byes

I love the way you move in me

when we're making love

and when you tell me quietly

I'm all you're thinking of

I love your lips because they're soft

and run along my skin

trailing down my ear and cheek,

along my jaw and chin

I love your hands and tender touch

and the warmth of your embrace

and when we kiss I love the way

you hold onto my face

I ask you please, just this once

to never let me go

but if you do, I swear to you

I may still love you so
