I Don't Hate You

I hate that I’ll never have you
That she's the one, instead of me
I hate that I can never tell you
Just how you drive me so crazy

I hate that I’m not the one
That she's all you'll ever need
I hate that I missed my chance
That I can never tell you how I feel

I hate the fact that we're just friends
And we'll be nothing more
I hate it when you reminisce
About the times before

Because they just remind me
Of how it used to be
When we were young and in love
When you still loved me

I hate it when you turn away
Knowing that you won't turn back
I hate it when you smile at me
Gee, won't you cut me some slack?

I want to get over you
But I just can’t figure out how
It’s just so hard, because you’re…YOU
I wanna get over you now

But how can I
When you’re always there
Always here, always near
Always everywhere

I hate it when you speak of her
Of how happy you guys are
I just wish I could shut it out
The way your love will make you go far

But I just gotta sit and take it
And pretend I’m over you
That’s the thing I’ll hate the most
That my love for you’s still true
