You Don’t Have to Love Me

(Verse 1)
Do I scare you
With all the sweet nothings that I whisper in your ear?
Am I compared to
The lovers that you had that crippled you with fear?
Do you love me?
Or are you echoing the things I want to hear?
'Cause it still hurts me to know that the things that you have said might disappear

(Chorus)
You don't have to love me
You don't have to lie
But when you laugh at my affection
All I can do is cry
Loving you is not something I should have to hide

(Verse 2)
Have I lost them?
All the things that made me seem so right to you
Did you consider the cost when
You dove down head first in what might be a shallow pool?
Am I just being anxious?
Begging for medicine when really theres no wound?
Well, wouldn't that be nice
But this hole inside is showing me the truth

(Chorus)
You don't have to love me
You don't have to lie
But when you laugh at my affection
All I can do is cry
Loving you is not something I should have to hide

(Choir Ahs)

(Chorus)
You don't have to love me
You don't have to lie
But when you laugh at my affection
All I can do is cry
Loving you is not something I should have to hide
Loving you is not something I should have to hide
