"Thin Line Between Love & Hate" - Chrissie Hynde & The Pretenders

I really like this cover of The Persuaders hit "Thin Line Between Love & Hate.






Thin Line Between Love & Hate
Songwriter Richard Poindexter


It's a thin line, between love & hate
 It's a thin line, between love & hate

It's 5 o'clock in the morning
And your just getting in, you knock on the door
A voice sweet and low says, who is it?
She opens up the door and lets you in
Never do she once ask 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 shes smiling, never once raises her voice
It's 5 o'clock in the morning
You don't give it a second thought

It's a thin line, between love & hate
It's a thin line, between love & hate
 It's a thin line, between love & hate
 It's a thin line, between love & hate
 It's a thin line...yes it is, between love & hate

The 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 holding something inside
That will really hurt you one day

I see her in the hospital

Bandaged from feet to head
In a state of shock
Just that much from being dead
You couldn't believe a girl would do something like this
You didn't think the girl had the nerve, so here you are
I guess action speaks louder than words

It's a thin line between love & hate
 It's a thin line, between love & hate
 It's a thin line, between love & hate
 It's a thin line, between love & hate
  It's a thin line...yes it is between love & hate
 It's a thin line
