Loving the Enemy

Jim Melko

 

Every day when I look in the mirror

The problem just keeps getting clearer 

She’s not good for me

Bloodshot eyes and a carpet of stubble

All my friends say I’m headed  for trouble

I can’t help but agree

 

But it always seems all right

All night

Even though I don’t sleep

She’s everything I need

And I know that I’m choosin’

To be losin’ 

I’m not too far gone to see

That this is killing me

 

Chorus

Loving the enemy

Loving the enemy

She’s getting the best of me

But she still wants the rest of me 

Loving the enemy

Loving the enemy

She's counting her victories

And I’ll never have any peace

Loving the enemy

 

I was fighting a war that was over

A battle scarred broken down soldier

Beaten by my mistakes

She overcame all my defenses

I couldn't resist her advances

All my walls laid to waste

 

But it always seems all right

All night

Even though I don’t sleep

She’s everything I need

And I know that I’m choosing

To be losing

I’m not too far gone to see

That this is killing me

 

Repeat Chorus

 

Bridge

I keep resisting

But she keeps me twisting around 

I can't defeat her

'Cause I never meet her on level ground

 

Repeat Chorus
