i wish i didn't love you so - aretha franklin lyrics

i, i wish i didn’t love you so
my love for you should’ve ended long ago
ooh and i, i wish i didn’t need your kiss
why should your kiss torture me as long as this?

i should be smiling by now with some new tender friend
smiling by now with my heart on the mend
but when i try, something in my heart says no
you’re still there and i, i wish i didn’t love you so
ooh i, i wish i didn’t love you so
