"If You Want Me To" lyrics

First can I say that how happy I've been having you here
Others there were have now gone leaving the way clear
And yet for all that I sense some reluctance on your part
Yes, you like where this is going but not yet where it could start

No doubt what you have been through can't be easy
How someone you loved so much walked out on you beats me
But given time if you think there's a difference we could make
Why not at least let me try even if as I say

I may look like a man who at times
Can't tell his beer from his wines
But you know that I'll love you
If you want me too

Why do I feel when I knock on your door and you answer
Something about how you look makes you look even grander
A word in my ear then are words I keep meaning to keep out
How can the more we get on mean there is more to doubt

I may lose what I gain on the swing
Even when on it I cling
But you know that I'll love you
If you want me too

There is no denying if truth be told
We have our separate ways
But one thing for sure
Together is where it stays

As for the future if you care to look now might it be
If there's a case to be made might it be made for me
I may not have the presence of mind
Something to which I'm resigned
But you know that I'll love you
If you want me too
