Live to Love Him, Love to Hate Him

Great country song, don't you think??

 I live to love him, love to hate him

Don't know why, I'm always waitin'

For him to change, drives me insane-

It's an addiction I can't kick

Guess I'll have to take my licks

As long as I keep tavlin' down this road.

 

He called me up today and what he had to say

was every name he could think of to call me

I hung up the telephone, wantin' to be alone

Then he called right back to say, I'm sorry

This round and round drives mad

He doesn't know just what he had

But I'll be right back in this place tomorrow.....

 

 

Every time we play this game

I feel lost and so ashamed

that I let a man bring me down so low

It's a sick and twisted need

to know he's coming back to me

And I'll be right here waitin' when he calls.....

 

I live to love him love to hate him

Don't know why I'm always waitin'

For him to change, drives me insane-

It's an addiction I can't kick

Guess I'll have to take my licks

As long as I keep travlin' down this road.

 

Musical bridge:

 

Now it's me who makes the call

no one to catch him as he falls

I'm tired of bein' treated like his dog

He can kiss me off as gone

I've finally figured out what's wrong

Now I'm stronger than he'll ever hope to be.....

 

I used to love him, I loved to hate him

There'll be no more long waiting

He can change or he can stay the way he is

I quit cold turkey on my own

I'm sober as a stone

I'll choose my own path wherever it may lead.

 

 

Author's Note

I have a melody in my mind-hard to convey on paper but the words do go though it might be hard to imagine.
