I Love/Hate You
[Verse 1]
Baby, when I put my hands on you
I feel like I'm touching the earth
Baby, when I put my hands on you
I feel like I'm touching the earth
Baby, when I put my hands on you
I feel like I'm touching the earth
'Cause I'm breaking ground and the soil is wet
Slipping through my hands
I'm breaking ground and the soil is wet
Slipping through my hands

[Verse 2]
Baby, when I set my eyes on you
I follow the curves of the moon
Baby, when I set my eyes on you
I follow the curves of the moon
Baby, when I set my eyes on you
I follow the curves of the moon
The oceans rise
Come crashing down onto the shore
The oceans rise and
Come crashing down onto the shore

[Chorus]
But your love is a noose around my neck
I give up and I know I will regret it
Your love is a weight around my legs
But I don't know who I am unless you're holding me
[Verse 3]
Baby when I listen to your words
They whisper to me like the wind
Baby when I listen to your words
They whisper to me like the wind
Baby when I listen to your words
They whisper to me like the wind
They're strong enough to blow me down
Destroy my house
They're strong enough to blow me down
And destroy my house

[Chorus]
But your love is a noose around my neck
I give up and I know I will regret it
Your love is a weight around my legs
But I don't know who I am unless you're holding me

Baby, when I listen to your words
Baby, when I set my eyes on you
Baby, when I put my hands on you
Baby, when I put my hands on you
I love/hate you
