I May Hate You Sometimes by The Posies Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1988

[Verse 1]
Here we are
Only been a couple of years, maybe longer
Yes, it's true
I'm no good at being the strong man, you're stronger
But I think
Maybe you should take a good look at my feelings
Can't you see?
I'm another one just like you, human being

[Chorus 1]
I don't want to have to sacrifice to get along
I don't ever want to be the one to say I'm wrong
I may hate you sometimes, but I'll always love you

[Verse 2]
What did you say?
It's so hard for me to remember what you meant
How did it happen?
Was it preconcieved or a complete accident?
I still recall
We were once happy together smiling faces
But things have changed
And now you're only happy when I remember where my place is
[Chorus 2]
I don't want to have to live up to your expectations
I don't ever want to be the one to end relations
I may hate you sometimes, but I'll always love you

[Bridge]
Do you think you could treat me
Like somebody special?
I can't be everything to everybody
Could I at least be something to you?

[Verse 3]
Don't look so surprised
I'm a little smarter than every other weakling
Say no more
I know exactly what you're going to say without you speaking
A familiar phrase
I've heard it said often before, please forgive me
Don't be a fool
If I can't live with myself, how could you live with me?

[Chorus 3]
Now that I'm filled with emotion you're dispassionate
You only live for yourself while I live to regret
But don't ever think that I could easily forget
Because I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I said that I would but now I know that I won't
And the chance of being right is looking kind of remote
I may hate you sometimes (I may hate you sometimes)
I may hate you sometimes (I may hate you sometimes)
I may hate you sometimes
But I'll always love you
I may hate you sometimes, but I'll always love you
