I wish I couldn’t hate
But you abandoned me on that night
Every night I sit and wait

I wish I could say it was fate
But you left with so much fright
I wish I couldn’t hate

You left me on our date
I watched the candle flame burn bright
Every night I sit and wait

Once you were just my mate
When we first met my heart took flight
I wish I couldn’t hate

Do you remember our first date
You took me to see the northern lights
Every night I sit and wait

I found you were with a girl named Kate
That’s the reason why we fight
I wish I couldn’t hate
Every night I sit and wait…
