Wait a minute what's going on I can feel the change in your attitude Sure I like you don't get me wrong But there are things you said that you want from me I can't give you, oh no no I like your smile and your company And like the way we fool around But now you're asking too much of me I can't hang with you if all you want is to tie me down So don't you hate me I hope you understand why I've got to do what I've got to do No don't you hate me Baby I wouldn't lie if the time was right then it would be you Don't hate me no, oh no Wait a second let's talk this out What did we say from the very start If you had listened to what I said Then I wouldn't have to break your heart So don't you hate me I hope you understand why I've got to do what I've got to do No don't you hate me Baby I wouldn't lie if the time was right then it would be you Now sometimes I feel like you But there's so much left to do I could do what you want me to And you might be happy But I won't be happy So don't you hate me I hope you understand why I've got to do what I've got to do No don't you hate me Baby I wouldn't lie if the time was right then it would be you So don't you hate me I hope you understand why I've got to do what I've got to do No don't you hate me Baby I wouldn't lie if the time was right then it would be you Don't hate me, if I'm not in love, I'm not in love Don't hate me, if I'm not in love, I'm not in love
