Jean Shepard
"I Hate Myself"

(E.M. Vandall)

I hate myself for making you cry
Forgive me darling for days gone by
I hate myself for breaking your heart
I've been so lonesome since we've been apart.

Why won't you take me back again
I was wrong I realize
Can you learn to trust me
After telling you those lies.

It's you I love
There's nobody else
I know I have hurt you
And I hate myself.

Why won't you take me back again
Why won't you take me back again
I was wrong I realize
Can you learn to trust me
After telling you those lies.

It's you I love
There's nobody else
I know I have hurt you
And I hate myself...
