Give Love a Fighting Chance

You look at me I look at you Seeing very different views Gripping tight to not let loose On what we both feel is the truth With bloodshot eyes open wide Opposites on either side In our lives we wonder why Differences as day and night We fuss and cuss in our righteousness Throwing hands up in disgust I wonder what is wrong with us And where went brotherly love In values face we generate What has become so much hate We need to learn how to relate Bring that love back into play One of us has misconstrued You're thinking me, I'm thinking you Delirious in our own views Of what we both think is the truth I see this going nowhere fast Without a chance to even guess With the little in common we have left We need to give that love a chance
