It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line between love and hate      It's five o'clock in the mornin' and you're just gettin' in   You knock on the front door and a voice sweet and low says, who is it?   She opens up the door and lets you in   Never once asks where have you been      She says "Are you hungry? Did you eat yet?   Let me hang up your coat, pass me your hat"   All the time she's smilin', never once raises her voice   It's five o'clock in the mornin' and you don't give it a second thought      It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line, yes, it is between love and hate      Sweetest woman in the world   Could be the meanest woman in the world if you make her that way   You keep hurting her, she'll keep being quiet   She might be holdin' somethin' inside   That'll really, really hurt you one day      I see her in the hospital bandaged from foot to head   In a state of shock just that much from bein' dead   You couldn't believe the girl would do somethin' like this   You didn't think the girl had the nerve   But here you are, I guess, action speaks louder than words      It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line between love and hate   It's a thin line, yes it is between love and hate   It's a thin line between love and hate
