I Don't Want to Love You, But I Do
A good old-fashioned cheatin' song!
Welcome to my page! I hope you like it here.
I’ve been writing songs on and off for the past 30 years. I tend to write country although I'm known to write songs that are more folk or rock. Sometimes when I sit down with a guitar I surprise myself with what comes out!
Story behind the song
This title popped into my head one morning. The rest of the song just followed.
Lyrics
(Chorus)
I don’t want to love you, but I do
The way you kiss and hug me is leading me to ruin
I belong to someone else but here I am, holding you
And I don’t want to love you, but I do
(Verse 1)
Since the night you said you loved me
My world’s turned upside-down
I love you but it’s the guilt that I can’t shake
‘Cause he’s at home, waitin’ for me now
(Chorus)
I don’t want to love you, but I do
The way you kiss and hug me is leading me to ruin
I belong to someone else but here I am, holding you
And I don’t want to love you, but I do
(Verse 2)
I try not to think about the future
And the life with you that I can’t have
I know I should end this, but I can’t let you go
How can I choose, when my heart’s torn in half?
(Chorus)
I don’t want to love you, but I do
The way you kiss and hug me is leading me to ruin
I belong to someone else but here I am, holding you
And I don’t want to love you, but I do
I don’t want to love you, but I do
