"Id Love You to Want Me" is a song by American singer-songwriter Lobo. It was released in September 1972 as the second single from his second album Of a Simple Man.

The song was Lobo's highest-charting hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, where it spent two weeks at No. 2 in November. The single was the second of four of his songs to hit No. 1 on the Easy Listening chart, where it had a one-week stay at that top spot in December 1972. It became a gold record.

When released in the United Kingdom in 1972, the song failed to reach the UK Singles Chart; however, a re-release of the single in 1974, on the UK record label, peaked at No. 5.

Thomas Lyle Stephens: @markstunes Best yet Mark! Almost like the song was written with your voice in mind. Too long now that I haven't heard this wonderful gem of a song. You pointed your finger at center field and knocked it out of the park with amazing clearance! I can't tell you how enjoyable it was for me to listen to this!
