I’m sittin’ here
With my mind going crazy
I can’t believe what I’ve done
You said that you love me
You said that you love me

Do or die, you hung me out to dry
You always said
That you would be my alibi
Cos you love me
Bull shit did you love me

So why you do me like that
I can’t believe
That you would let me take the rap
Was I only worth a pocketful of cash, yeah
I wanna hurt you but this feeling won’t go

[CHORUS]:

I just can’t hate you
Why can’t I hate you
You know I tried
And I tried to get back at home

I just can’t hate you
Why can’t I hate you
I try to imagine
All the things I shoulda done to you
I shoulda I woulda I coulda
But I just can’t hate you

Why weren’t you covering my back babe
Supposed to meat me at the jazz hotel
But instead you
You let them run up on me baby
What could I do?

Now, it seems I’m going down and
I’m running for my life
They want me out of town, yeah
I can’t believe it babe
Why would you let your man down like that

[CHORUS]:

Still I just can’t hate you
(you know I try, try)
I just can’t hate you
(I’m sick and tried, tried)
You know I tried
And I tried to get back at you
But I just can’t leave you alone

I just can’t hate you
(you know I try, try)
I just can’t hate you
(I’m sick and tried, tried)
I try to imagine
All the things I shoulda done to you
I shoulda I woulda I coulda
But I just can’t hate you

So why you do me like that?
I can’t believe
That you would let me take the rap
Was I only worth a pocketful of cash
Yeah
I wanna hurt you but this feeling won’t
Go

[CHORUS]:

I just can’t hate you
(you know I try, try)
I just can’t hate you
(I’m sick and tried, tried)
You know I tried
And I tried to get back at you
But I just can’t leave you alone

I just can’t hate you
(you know I try, try)
I just can’t hate you
(I’m sick and tried, tried)
I try to imagine
All the things I shoulda done to you
(shoulda done)
I shoulda I woulda I coulda
But I just can’t hate you

you know I try, try
I just can’t hate you
(you know I’m sick and tried, tried)
You know I try
And I try to get back at you
But I just can’t leave you alone

And I just can’t hate you
(you know I try try)
Why I can’t hate you
(I’m sick and tried tried)
I try to imagine
All the things I shoula done to you
I shoulda I woulda I coulda
But I just can’t hate you
