Things I Used To Hate Lyrics

I hated my face for so long

As if that was the thing that made you stop loving me (loving me)

And I hated my voice for so long

As if that was the thing that made you stop listening (listening)

You changed your lover like a pair of shoes

But it was an honor to be worn by you

Now barefoot I hope you'll find

The soul that I know's inside

Time will bring us together or separate

'Cause why be good when we could've been great?

I just want you to know I learned to love

The things I used to hate

I stuck around for so long

As if that would be the thing that stopped you from wanting to leave (wanting to leave)

And I don't need to remind you

That I was the only one who really believed (really believed, oh)

'Cause you changed your lover like a pair of shoes

But it was an honor to be worn by you

Now barefoot I hope you'll find

The soul that I know's inside

Time will bring us together or separate

'Cause why be good when we could've been great?

I just want you to know I learned to love

The things I used to hate

When it's slipping through my hands like water

The one thing I wish I could've taught you

To let it go, just like you let me

Led it on, just like you led me, oh, oh, oh

You changed your lover like a pair of shoes

But it was an honor to be worn by you

Oh I wish I'd been warned by you

I wish I'd been kept warm by you, oh

Oh, oh

But I don't see it as a mistake, 'cause I

Learned to love

The things I used to hate.
