If You Would Hate Me Less I'd Love You More

Billy Squier, I.M.E. / Songs of the Knight / ASCAP

I'm havin' a daydream - Thinkin' of how it might have been

if we had not gone and lost our way (reads like a tragedy)

More than a memory - I have lost a part of me

I'd only just begun to know (and it's taken such a long time)

Your daggers wound me deeply

but if you would hurt me less I'd soothe you more

I would give myself so cheaply

if you could hate me less I'd love you more

Sister have mercy - come to me, take my hand

I am such a long way from home (and I'm cryin' out)

Love is a mystery - as the silent scream of loneliness

is ever wont to know

Does suspicion rule unending

if you'd only doubt me less I'd trust you more

There's no use in our pretending

but if you would hate me less I'd love you more

Fear is the enemy - hurt and anger take their toll

they leave their mark on you (they mark me too)

Immune to your feelings - consciousness is blockin' the door

did I tell you you are not alone

You're so anxious to condemn me

but if you would judge me less I'd serve you more

I don't want you to defend me

but if you could hate me less I'd love you more

Do you have to be so angry

if you'd only ask for less I'd give you more

Do you really wanna hang me

if you would hate me less I'd love you more
