Ben Platt - I wanna love you but I don’t Lyrics

I think it sucks that you're perfect
'Cause you're not perfect for me
And though you kill me with kindness
It ain't the kind that I need
I known we look good on paper
Until you give us a read
'Cause when we pull back the curtains
There ain't a whole lot to see

I wanna love you but I don't
I wanna need you but I won't
I beg my heart to start to race when I'm kissing you
I say I dreaming 'bout your face, but it isn't you

And I'm not trying to change you
But it's just not in the stars
I know there's somebody out there
To love you just as you are
When you finally find the someone who fits you right
You're gonna see I couldn't be him
No mater how hard I tried
I know, I wanna love you but I
I wanna love you but I

I wanna love you but I don't
I wanna need you but I won't
I beg my heart to start to race when I'm kissing you
I say I'm dreaming 'bout your face, but it isn't you
I wanna love you but I don't
You gotta let me let you go
'Cause I can't look you in the eye
For another day
Won't stay forever, so goodbye
It's the only way
I wanna love you but I don't

(I wanna love you)
(I wanna, I wanna)
(I wanna love you)
I wanna love you but I don't (I wanna, I wanna)
(I wanna love you)
(I wanna, I wanna)
(I wanna love you)
I wanna love you but I don't (I wanna, I wanna)

I wanna need you but I won't
I beg my heart to start to race when I'm kissing you
I say I'm dreaming 'bout your face, but it isn't you
I wanna love you but I don't (I wanna love you)
You gotta let me let you go (I wanna, I wanna)
'Cause I can't look you in the eye
For another day (I wanna love you)
Won't stay forever, so goodbye (I wanna, I wanna)
Is the only way (I wanna love you)
I wanna love you but I don't

(I wanna love you)
(I wanna, I wanna)
(I wanna love you)
I wanna love you but I don't (I wanna, I wanna)
(I wanna love you)
(I wanna, I wanna)
I wanna love you
I wanna, I wanna
