Slow Motion

Charlotte Lawrence

I wish that I could hate you, my baby

The colors are fading outIs it quiet where you′re sleeping?
Your records, my empty house
I wish I knew what you were feeling

Fighting every instinct while you hold your pride (pride)
Back to the beginning, it swallows my mind
You're all that I think about
I even see you when I′m dreaming

I wish that I could hate you, my baby
I wish that when I left, you'd have chased me
I didn't wanna change, but you made me
Now you′re telling all your friends that I′m crazy
Hard to believe that you ever really loved me
I made believe that you cared when you touched me
I know I'll be movin′ on in slow motion

I've never been good with words
But you didn′t try to listen
Could call, but I won't be the first
To remind you what you′re missin'

Fighting every instinct while you hold your pride (pride)
Back to the beginning, it swallows my mind
You never learned how to hurt
But I didn't try to fix it

I wish that I could hate you, my baby
I wish that when I left, you′d have chased me
I didn′t wanna change, but you made me
Now you're telling all your friends that I′m crazy
Hard to believe that you ever really loved me
I made believe that you cared when you touched me
I know I'll be movin′ on in slow motion
(I wish that I could hate you, my baby)

I need you more when you're not around, not around
Maybe I crave the way you let me down, let me down
I think I want you more than I need ya
Avoid the places I see ya
Killing me slow, killing me slowly

I wish that I could hate you, my baby
I wish that when I left, you′d've chased me
I didn't wanna change, but you made me
Now you′re telling all your friends that I′m crazy
Hard to believe that you ever really loved me
I made believe that you cared when you touched me
I know I'll be movin′ on in slow motion
