I'd Love You If I Could

This is a song I wrote awhile ago about a guy who liked me that I kinda liked back but I just couldn't really be with him. I hope you like it! The hidden message is: I just don't want to hurt you <3

I'd Love You If I Could

You spent a whole year,

Watching the way I walk,

And hearing the words I talk,

While I was clueless,

And facing the other way,
When there was some guy,
Who caught my eye,

I left you in the dust

Well baby I'd love you if I could,

But I just can't force my heart to a place,

Where it doesn't want to go,

Well I don't want to hurt you,

Like the way that he hurt me,

You swear I won't,

But honey I do know,

Well baby I'd love you if I could

When he was gone,

And left me lost,

You helped me find,

My piece of mind,

And when I'm lost in a song,

You sing me a melody,

But they never seem,

To be about you

Well baby I'd love you if I could,

But I just can't force my heart to a place,

Where it doesn't want to go,

Well I don't want to hurt you,

Like the way that he hurt me,

You swear I won't,

But honey I do know,

Well baby I'd love you if I could

Well baby I don't wanna,

Hurt your feelings,

Or ruin our friendship,

But you don't seem to understand,

You say you'd give everything,

To be a part of me,

But I feel like no matter what,

All I would think about is him

Well baby I'd love you if I could,

But I just can't force my heart to a place,

Where it doesn't want to go,

Well I don't want to hurt you,

Like the way that he hurt me,

You swear I won't,

But honey I do know,

Well baby I'd love you if I could <3

Author's Note

Heyy :) So I wrote this song a while ago after my first boyfriend broke up with me. This guy started liking me at the beginning of last year, well now it'd be two years but ya. After a while he still liked me but I liked this other guy and dated him and sort of forgot about the guy who liked me. After we broke up I was kinda lost and the guy still liked me but I felt bad because it seemed like I kept leaving him to be with other people and this song was kind of me telling him that I couldn't with him because I was always afraid that I would hurt him like the way my ex broke my heart. Turns out a long while later... I dated him.... didn't really work out well :/ butttttt I'll have more songs on that later :) haha! Hope you like it!

Wow, I can totally relate to this! Anytime another guy would start to like me, I'd like him back but my ex would always be in my thoughts. It made everything worse and hard for me for awhile anyway. I do think you have a talent from God for writing epic songs! :D Just putting that out there. Haha! I wish I could do that. I especially like the repeating stanza, which I think is the chorus.. But anyway, it's beautifully written. I enjoyed this and added it to my favorites :)


P.S.- Will be reading and reviewing more of your work! You're an excellent writer. Never give up what God's possessed you with :)

Thanks so much! I'm glad you like it and you can relate :) That's why I write music and stuff so that other people can know that they're not alone in confusing situations. Again, thanks so much! :) < 3
