Splitting Up

I think I better leave right now Before I say something stupid Like only a boy in love would And if this is our parting shot Let it not be lost in sentimentality I am sure you agree We can drop the formalities We know each other far to well To pretend We do not know each other's foibles And pressure point's Otherwise we could overcome This impasse we fall before All the while knowing Sooner or later we will ramp up the rhetoric of abuse Until 1 of us gives in And neither of us can remember Why on earth we shared a bed together Maybe I loved you to much To try and patch things up
