"The obligation that you made // For the title that they gave" makes clear the song is about some kind of "forbidden" love where the woman cannot reciprocate the singer's feelings due to her standing in society (royalty, nun, his teacher etc.).

I'd Love You To Want Me lyrics
When I saw you standing there
I 'bout fell out my chair
And when you moved your mouth to speak
I felt the blood go to my feet
Now it took time for me to know
What you tried so not to show
Now something in my soul just cries
I see the want in your blue eyes
Baby, I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Baby, you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be
You told yourself years ago
You'd never let your feeling show
The obligation that you made
For the title that they gave
Baby, I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Baby, you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be
Now it took time for me to know
What you tried so not to show
Now something in my soul just cries
I see the want in your blue eyes
Baby, I'd love you to want me
The way that I want you
The way that it should be
Baby, you'd love me to want you
The way that I want to
If you'd only let it be
