Lyrics:
“I Wish I Didn’t Love You So”
I wish I didn’t love you so
My love for you should have faded long ago.
I wish I didn’t need your kiss
Why must your kiss torture me as long as this.I should be smilin’ by now
With some new tender friend.
Smilin’ by now
With my heart on the mend.But when I try
Something in my heart says “No”.
And that’s why
I wish I didn’t love you so.I should be smilin’ by now
With some new tender friend.
Smilin’ by now
With my heart on the mend.But when I try
Something in my heart says “No”.
And that’s why
I wish I didn’t love you so.
