I can't make you love me
MathaiTurn down the bed.
Turn down these voices
Inside my head.
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies.
Just hold me closely
Don't patronize.
Don't patronize me.
'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't.
And you can't make your heart feel
Something that it won't.
And here in the dark
These final hours,
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power
But you won't.
No, you won't.
'Cause I can't make you love me
When you don't.
When you don't
I close my eyes,
'Cause then I don't see
The love you don't feel
When you're home with me.
Morning will come,
And I'll do what's right
Just give me till then
To give up this fight.
And i will give up this fight.
'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't.
And you can't make your heart feel
Something that it won't.
And here in the dark
These final hours,
I will lay down my heart
And I'll feel the power
But you won't.
No, you won't.
'Cause I can't make you love me
When you don't.
When you don't.
When you don't.
