Relationships Don't Work

Don't they, though?

You're the one who will still admit that you love me.
"Not romantically right now. But I'll always love you."
Okay then....
You're the one who calls me to spend an entire one-on-one evening out on the town with you.
You buy me dinner, you cruise around with me. You ASKED me to.
Relationships don't work, eh?
Seems kind of like ours IS, you just don't want to admit it.
And you try to convince yourself that this is not a relationship...
Then why did YESTERDAY happen?
You call me, say you have to come over to see Den.
You treat him like he's your brother-in-law. You pat him on the back and say "What a man!"
You laugh with him.
I'm beaming, grinning from ear-to-ear. You gotta love my family if you wanna love me.
And you treat my mother the same way! Wrap your arms around her when you walk in the door and ask her how she's doing.
We've been a family for two years. There's no denying that.
Well, after the time with family, I drove you back into town and when I dropped you off, you had to kiss me goodbye.
Honey, you don't have the heart of a player. You can't feel this way about more than one girl. You don't. You don't treat her the same way. I know it.
Don't try telling me relationships don't work anymore.
Because the kind of love we have "forgives 70 times 7" and is "long withstanding" and "endures all". Our love conquers all.
Our relationship will survive.
