Opposite from 12 by Robin Tymm

You look to the future
But I can’t see that far
You have hope for tomorrow
I just worry for the way things are
We can’t stay forever
Together yet apart

CHORUS
Oh, we’re not right, no, we don’t fit
We broke in two ‘cause the glue won’t stick
So what’s the point to all of this?
We’re poles apart, I guess we’re opposite

I can’t keep up with you
Every step I fall behind
You’re moving fast forward
I wish we could rewind
The life you wanted
Is not one I can provide

CHORUS
Oh, we’re not right, no, we don’t fit
We broke in two ‘cause the glue won’t stick
So what’s the point to all of this?
We’re poles apart, I guess we’re opposites

BRIDGE
We’re oil and water
We’re chalk and cheese
I’m a cold, north wind
You’re a summer’s breeze

CHORUS
Oh, we’re not right, no, we don’t fit
Too many pieces broke for us to try and fix
So what’s the point to all of this?
We’re poles apart, I guess we’re opposite
