"I’m in love with you and I’m not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things"
Simplified meaning
The speaker is expressing their love and explaining that they don't want to hide their feelings. They believe it's important to be honest, especially about something as beautiful and true as love. This can be compared to telling a friend you appreciate them. You might feel shy, but sharing your true feelings can make both of you feel good and bring you closer. Admitting how you really feel is like giving a genuine compliment—it’s simple, honest, and can make a big difference in your relationships. The speaker suggests that denying such honesty would be denying oneself happiness, and it's better to embrace and share it.
