I, but

By Dayer

I don't want to love you...
But I can't help the way I feel inside

I don't want to show you...
But feelings this mask doesn't hide

I know you can calm me...
But still at times I sit & cry

I want you to know me...
But a part of me keeps asking why

I don't undestand this...
But I guess it's meant to be that way

I long for our first kiss...
But in this love game I have no say
