After All

chorus:
things always seem to change so fast
permanence never seems to last
when all my "for sures" they start to vary
all my absolutes are just temporary

i know opposites are supposed to attract
but my love and your hate seem to detract
you can gain an enemy by losin' a best friend
seems like love's just a means to an end
or was it ever love after all

your touch was like fire but now it's just like ice
so stay your distance please don't stab me twice
as for love it never is too late
but all your love has turned into hate
or was it ever love after all

scar tissue's thick but i think maybe that i'll heal
i'm a little older, a little colder but still i feel
someday i'll find a love that is true
no more viper tongues to say "i love you"
and it will be love after all
