[Verse 1]
Somewhere in Milwaukee
There’s snow covering concrete
And I still see you walking away
And I tried to say I’m sorry
That frozen rain kept falling
And I couldn’t find the words to make you stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
You can hate my eyes for watching you leave
Hate my should have chased you down feet
And I tried to keep you wrapped in my arms
You can hate my hands for letting you go
Hate my lips for kissing yours cold
Hiding all my feelings in the dark
Please don’t hate my heart
[Verse 2]
And I's choked up on that freezing wind
I bit my tongue until it bled
Holding back the words until my lungs turned blue
And I still see your fingerprints
Running across my frostbit skin
All I’m breathing in is the truth
[Chorus]
You can hate my eyes for watching you leave
Hate my should have chased you down feet
And I tried to keep you wrapped in my arms
You can hate my hands for letting you go
Hate my lips for kissing yours cold
Hiding all my feelings in the dark
Please don’t hate my heart
Now please don’t hate my heart
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
You can hate my eyes for watching you leave
Hate my should have chased you down feet
And I tried to keep you wrapped in my arms
You can hate my hands for letting you go
Hate my lips for kissing yours cold
Hiding all my feelings in the dark
Please don’t hate my heart
Now please don’t hate my heart
