Learn To Hate You
by: James MichaelIt should be easier, I should be good at this by now,
After all this time, I should really have it down,
But I don't want you back, even though that's how it sounds,
But I can't lie, I miss having you around.
If I really love you then I gotta learn to let go,
Memories won't lead me to heaven though,
I'm doing everything I gotta do to get through,
But it's a b*tch making love without you.
Woah-o-o, woah-oh,
I can run but I can't escape you,
Woah-o-o, woah-oh,
Wish I could learn to hate you.
It's like a hurricane, came and tore my world apart,
And in the aftermath, I'm finding pieces of my heart,
If I was mad at you, I would already have moved on,
But in reality you were good to me but you left where you belong.
If I really love you then I gotta learn to let go,
Memories won't lead me to heaven though,
I'm doing everything I gotta do to get through,
But it's a b*tch making love without you.
Woah-o-o, woah-oh,
I can run but I can't escape you,
Woah-o-o, woah-oh,
Wish I could learn to hate you.
I must admit I, I've done some stupid things,
I can't forgive myself for anything,
I wish I could rise above, I wish I didn't care,
I wish I didn't care.
'Cos it was more than just our first time,
I can't believe you broke it off before we even tried,
Now I can't breath in, I can't feel the feeling,
I'm not blaming you I know you had your reasons,
But f*ck all those people that say I wasn't right for you,
And lied to you and said I did things that I didn't do,
Well I swear to God I would have died for you,
I would have died for you, I would have died for you.
If I really love you then I gotta learn to let go,
Memories won't lead me to heaven though,
I'm doing everything I gotta do to get through,
But it's a b*tch making love without you.
Woah-o-o, woah-oh,
I can run but I can't escape you,
Woah-o-o, woah-oh,
Wish I could learn to hate you,
Woah-o-o, woah-oh,
Wish I could learn to hate you,
Woah-o-o, woah-oh,
Wish I could learn to hate you,
Woah-o-o, woah-oh, I can't escape you,
Woah-o-o, woah-oh, I can't escape you,
Wish I could learn to hate you
