I Want To Love You

I want to love you, but you make it a chore One shouldn’t have to work so hard to love Still, I want you more and more, I can’t help it when push comes to shove. My feelings for you are difficult to explain I want to love you, but you make it a chore Time after time I’ve made my feelings plain And every time you shut the door. I fear I am beginning to sound like a boor, But I am trying to honestly tell you how I feel, I want to love you, but you make it a chore Slowly I’m beginning to question your appeal. If you don’t share these feelings I have inside Emotions I have shared many times before I’m wondering if you’re taking me for a ride I want to love you, but you make it a chore.
