Ben Platt - Reverie

I wanna love you but I don’t

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 know 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 begged my heart to start to race when I'm kissing you
I say, "I'm 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 that someone who fits you right
You'rе gonna see I couldn't be him no matter how hard I try
I know I wanna love you, but I-
I wanna lovе you, but I-

I wanna love you, but I don't
I wanna need you, but I won't
I begged 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 is the only way
I wanna love you, but I don't

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

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 (I wanna love you, I wanna, wanna)
You gotta let me let you go (I wanna love you, I wanna, wanna)
'Cause I can't look you in the eye for another day (I wanna love you, I wanna, wanna)
Won't stay forever, so goodbye is the only way (I wanna love you, I wanna, wanna)
I wanna love you, but I don't

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