Is it cruel or is it kind? I can't decide
Should I stay another night to be polite?
Already left you in my mind, a thousand times

I feel like a fool to do this to you
After everything we've been through
But every night, I'm living a lie
As I lay down beside you

I hate to hurt you, baby
And I try to hide these feelings
Oh, it breaks my heart to say it
I wish there was another way
I hate to hurt you, baby
And I try to hide these feelings
Oh, it breaks my heart to say it
I wish there was another way

I'll miss your skin, I'll miss your touch, I'll miss the rush
I'll miss your body on my body but it's not enough
But I've been dreaming of somebody else
I don't know what to do with myself

I hate to hurt you, baby
And I've tried to hide these feelings
Oh, it breaks my heart to say it
I wish there was another way
I hate to hurt you, baby
And I've tried to hide these feelings
Oh, it breaks my heart to say it
I wish there was another way

I hate to hurt you, baby
And I've tried to hide these feelings
Oh, it breaks my heart to say it
I wish there was another way
I hate to hurt you, baby
And I've tried to hide these feelings
Oh, it breaks my heart to say it
I wish there was another way
