Rubbing salt in my wounds like it don't hurt, like it don't hurt me
Your sweet bitter love songs, that seduce me with a sinister beat,
I'm bringin' out the worst in you, was never my intention to
That was just unfair to do.
Salt in my wounds
Getting burned up with the negative heat.
How can I stay mad with you
When I'm so in love with you?
Oh, oh, oh, I don't know what we argue about
Oh, oh, oh when all we do is scream and shout,
I still believe in our love right now
And it's gonna work out somehow,
You and me we got common ground
I'm not givin' up no.
Are you looking for a way out?
Are you looking for an exit door?
It seems like all the fuss your making
Is a sign that you're not quite sure.
I don't recommend you do
'Cause what we got's too good to lose
An' I can tell you know it too,
Or is it just aggravation you're pickin' on me
You're rubbing salt in my wounds.
How can I stay mad with you
When I'm so in love with you?
Oh, oh, oh, I don't know what we argue about
Oh, oh, oh when all we do is scream and shout,
I still believe in our love right now
And it's gonna work out somehow,
You and me we got common ground
I'm not givin' up no.
Maybe just a kind word now and then
Could turn it around make us a happy end
But if this is it, and the moment is gone
Then oh well, then I guess I just got it wrong
As wise as it sounds, it doesn't make sense
And as long as it takes I'm gonna keep on tryin'
I'm not givin' up on us, no, no, no
