The Rules for Lovers

Hello, goodbye
So long, goodnight
The sound, the size
Of truth, of lies
A kick, a word
Unsaid, unheard
Who decides the rules for lovers like you and I?
We choose each other and we find no other lover
With, without
We trust, we doubt
To find, to lose
We hurt, we bruise
The hand, the heart
An end, a start
Who decides the rules for lovers like you and I?
We choose each other and we find no other lover
A sky, a night
The black, the white
A push, a pull
The prince, the fool
The harsh, the kind
A day, a life
Who decides the rules for lovers like you and I?
We choose each other and we find no other lover
