Lyrics
I DON’T WANT YOU TO LOVE ME
©Kellylee Evans (Sept 3, 2002)
Tell me you love me, you’ll never convince me
You don’t know what love is, you’ll only leave me
Though your smile brings light to even the sunniest day
Your eyes see past my attempts to elude you
I know I’m not meant to feel passion this way
Just as I know that you won’t stay
Chorus
I don’t want you love me no, no
I can’t handle the thought that you would go
It’s easier if we cut these ties
That bind, ever tightening, as days go by
This may come as a surprise
I don’t want you to love me, goodbye
Don’t think of this as a fear to commit
My therapist said there’d be days like this
Though it seemed that our love would grow stronger each day
It did, but I fear this attachment to you
I know I’m not meant to feel passion this way
Just as I know that you won’t stay
Chorus
I don’t want you love me no, no
I can’t handle the thought that you would go
It’s easier if we cut these ties
That bind, ever tightening, as days go by
This may come as a surprise
I don’t want you to love me, goodbye
Bridge
If you only knew
I’d disappoint you
I can’t sustain
Your devotion, this emotion
Scares me
Leaves me confused
I can’t
Accept this love from you
Don’t blame me
For feeling this way
Chorus
I don’t want you love me no, no
I can’t handle the thought that you would go
It’s easier if we cut these ties
That bind, ever tightening, as days go by
This may come as a surprise
I don’t want you to love me
I don’t want you
I don’t want you
I don’t want you to love me, goodbye
