Songtexte: Charly Mcclain. I Hate The Way I Love It.

(with Johnny Rodriguez)

J: You knew I'd come around again, baby
I knew you'd let me in again, baby
Neither one of us is strong enough to tell the other one goodbye
C: Help yourself to me, I help myself to you
What in the world are we gonna do?
Who gives us the right to be wrong one more night?
J: 'Cause my best friend is your husband
C: & my best friend is your wife

(Chorus:)
BOTH: Don't you know, I hate the way I love it
Don't you know, we got to pull away from it
Don't you know, I hate the way I love it
J: When I'm wantin' you & needin' you the way I do
BOTH: I can't stay away from your love

C: Lyin' here with you tonight, baby
Away from all the city lights, baby

Never feelin' any shame for the game we are playin'
J: There's a vacancy across the way
Where other lovers just like us will play
For the foolproof alibi that we made up together
J: But my best friend is your husband
C: & my best friend is your wife

(Chorus)

(backing vocals: I can't stay away from you
No no no I can't stay away from you)

(Chorus, fading)
