Between Love & Hate

Song byThe Strokes

in AlbumRoom On Fire

Watched her as she wiped her eyes;

You don't make me sorry. Now I know

That you never listened - Listen.

Thinking about that high school dance

Worrying about the finals

Yes I know

You're feeling lonely

Oh lonely, so lonely.

Never needed anybody, I never needed anybody

I never needed anybody, I never needed nobody

Don't worry about it, honey

I never needed anybody

I never needed anybody, it won't change now.

Am I wrong?

Don't sing along with me.

I said I was fine,

It's just the second time

We lost the war

She'd be in the kitchen

I would start the fire

Those days are gone

But you know I can't give up - Give up.

P.S. if i may ask why

When will they get tired

We've stayed up

All night tryin' - Tryin'.

Never needed anybody, I never needed nobody

I never needed anybody, I never needed anybody

Don't worry about it, honey

I never needed anybody

I never needed anybody, it won't change now.

Am I wrong?

Don't sing along with me.

I said I was fine.

The second time

We lost the war
