I have a record by John Prine called 'Bruised Orange' which came out in 1978 -- it has that exact song title ('If you don't want my love') on it. He's not a soul singer and he's not from the 60's. It has a slow tempo and an acoustic guitar is the only accompanying instrument.
It's common enough that (I believe) you should be able to locate a copy of it rather easily. Good luck.

Richard Marx ?
I know you have reservations
And youre just along for the ride
But I see a slight hesitation
What are you trying to hide
Dont be afraid to bare your soul
Nothing you say could be too bold
Im growing old
If you dont want my love
Tell me now cause Ill survive
If you dont want my love
Im sure that somebody does tonight
You make a grown man quiver
It might be hard to believe
But its time to stand and deliver
Youve just been playing with me
I dont want to blow my only chance
But youve got to show me where you stand
Or drop my hand
If you dont want my love
Tell me know cause Ill survive
If you dont want my love
It wont be the end of my life
If you dont want my love
Night will fall and the sun will rise
If you dont want my love
Im sure that somebody does tonight
I dont want to blow my only chance
But youve got to show me where you stand
Or drop my hand
If you dont want my love
Tell me now cause Ill survive
If you dont want my love
It wont be the end of my life
If you dont want my love
Night will fall and sun will rise
If you dont want my love
Im sure that somebody does tonight
If you dont want my love
Aint gonna worry tonight
If you dont want my love
Well somebody does tonight
Steven Cummings?
I don't expect you to do anything
Just answer the telephone when I ring
My sense of humour was diminishing
Send love COD
Chorus:
If you don't want my love
I'll get drunk and melancholy
If you don't want my love
The bottle's been a good friend to me
Who have you been sleeping with, keeping company
Mathematics might make sense, but not to me
There's no guarantee, that my sparkling repartee
Might be full of irony but you might disagree
Chorus (x2)
Oh girl you're just twenty one
So pretty so cynical for one so young
I've been thinking child
It's you not the traffic
That's been making me feel faint
Yeah so sarcastic
It simple as ABC
Send love COD

Andy Williams sang a song called you don't want my love!
Once upon a time you used to smile and wave to me
And walk with me but now you don't
'cause you don't want my love
Some other guy is takin' up all your time
Now ya don't have any time for me
'cause you don't want my love
do those lyrics ring a bell?

John Prine - If You Dont Want My Love
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
I know who
Ill give it to
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
Anymore.
If you dont want the thrill
If you dont want the thrill
If you dont want the thrill
I know who
I know who will
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
Anymore.
If thats the way that the world goes round
Then thats the way
That it all comes down
And when you want me
I wont be around
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
I know who
Ill give it to
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
If you dont want my love
Anymore.
