Love Song for an Adversary
You could look at me like there I do wrong and today I can’t do a thing correct
Cause you won’t permit it, won’t permit it
I know you sought me in ever crowd and now hope that crowd carries me off to death
But they won’t this instant, won’t this instant
Cause I am not opposed to you, the blood we drew,
The love we shared, so sweet
Cause I thing I could handle you, your wrath, your mood,
You say beware. Oh please.
I am not opposed
I stood in that line to get to you, it got dark, and they sent us all home again
And I thought we’d get there, thought we’d get there
You call the guards, sick the dogs when you said, “Come on in.”
And you wouldn’t quit there, wouldn’t quit there
Cause I am not opposed to you, the blood we drew,
The love we shared, so sweet
Cause I thing I could handle you, your wrath, your mood,
You say beware. Oh please.
I am not opposed
I brush off the battle scars
I brush off both yours and ours
Let’s battle again
Falling on the things you’ve thrown, but now you’ve known
The heart I bear don’t beat
Cause I thing I could handle you, your wrath, your mood,
You say beware. Oh please.
I am not opposed
