Hate to Let Go

You make my heart rush
When you look my way. When
I see you with him my heart drops
And strays away. That's when
I realize I should let you go...

It will feel like a sharp knife but
I know it's right. It's crazy when
You're gone how people start to realize
That you were mad in love with someone
Who never loved you back.

Love is a drug you just need a little to
Become hooked. Once you're hooked there's
No escape without some risk. That's what it
Takes to let go.

Once you are gone I'm jealous, I don't
Know why I can't be jealous because
you're not mine. Every night I lie awake wondering if you ever dream of me too.
And that's when I finally have to admit that...
I hate loving you.
