[Chorus]
Oh, I promise I didn't know he was your man
I would've noticed a gold wedding band
Diane
I'd rather you hate me than not understand
Oh, Diane
[Verse 1]
You pick the time and the place
Don't know how much this hurts
I gave him my heart to break
Now I know he broke yours first
Lyin' right there in my bed
While he was lying to you
Believing the words that he said
How could we be such fools?
[Pre-Chorus]
And all those nights that he's given to me
I wish that I could give them back to you
[Chorus]
Diane
I promise I didn't know he was your man
I would've noticed a gold wedding band
Diane
I'd rather you hate me than not understand
Oh, Diane
[Verse 2]
You can blame me if it helps
That's what a good wife would do
But you're only cheating yourself
Choosing him over the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
And all those nights that he's given to me
I wish that I could give them back to you
[Chorus]
Diane
I promise I didn't know he was your man
I would've noticed a gold wedding band
Diane
I'd rather you hate me than not understand
Oh, Diane
[Bridge]
Oh, whoa
Diane, Diane
Oh, whoa
Diane
Oh, I'd rather you hate me than not understand
Oh, Diane
[Outro]
And all those nights that he's given to me
I wish that I could give them back to you
