I Hate You
The Charlie Parkers Lyrics

I've got you under my skin.
You are deeply ingrained in my being and I cannot escape you.

I've got you deep in the heart of me.
You are firmly planted in my innermost emotions.

So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
You are an integral part of who I am.

I'd tried so not to give in.
I initially resisted the temptation to be with you.

I said to myself, this affair never will go so well.
I knew that pursuing a relationship with you would only lead to trouble.

But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know down well I've got you under my skin?
I eventually gave in to my desire for you because I knew I was powerless to resist.

I'd sacrifice anything come what might For the sake of havin' you near
I am willing to give up anything if it means being close to you.

In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night And repeats, repeats in my ear, Don't you know, you fool, you never can win?
My conscience reminds me that pursuing you is foolish and will lead to failure.

Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
I need to use my common sense and face the truth about our situation.

But each time that I do just the thought of you Makes me stop before I begin
Despite my better judgement, I can't stop thinking about you.

Cause I've got you under my skin.
You are a part of me that I cannot ignore.

Don't you know, you fool, ain't no chance to win Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality?
I am facing the reality that I cannot win you over.

And each time I do just the thought of you Makes me stop just before I begin Cause I've got you under my skin.
Your presence in my life continues to control my actions.

And I like you under my skin.
Despite the consequences, I enjoy having you in my life.
