Like It Or Not

by Bob Malone
From “Like It Or Not” (2001)

Between you and me – too many lovers have suffered
I can’t believe the hearts we’ve broken – including each other’s
Better men than me and kinder women than you
Are still wondering what they did to deserve what we put them through
But we can’t go on hurtin’ people forever
We’d do all our future ex’s a favor if we got together…

CHORUS
I don’t know if we’re supposed to be lovers
I don’t know if we were made for each other
But after all we’ve done there’s one thing I’ve discovered
Like it or not, we deserve each other.

There’s so much about you that leaves me feelin’ mean
But when you’re at your worst – you’re just exactly like me
So I’ll put up with yours – if you’ll put up with mine
And we may end up killin’ each other – but that sure beats just killin’ time
‘Cause honey you may be evil, that much may be true
But no one understands me quite the way that you do…

CHORUS

BRIDGE
We can fight this all that we want
But we’re going to be together whether we want to or not
And it makes me laugh that my better half could still be so bad
‘Cause after all this time you’re still the best I’ve ever had…

CHORUS
I don’t know if we’re supposed to be lovers
I don’t know if we were made for each other
But after all we’ve done there’s one thing I’ve discovered
Like it or not, and I think I like it a lot
Like it or not, we deserve each other.
