I Can’t Make You Love Me lyrics

Turn down the lights;

Turn down the bed.

Turn down these voices

Inside my head.

Lay down with me;

Tell me no lies.

Just hold me close;

Don’t patronize.

Don’t patronize me.

[Chorus:]

‘Cause I can’t make you love me

If you don’t.

You can’t make your heart feel

Something it won’t.

Here in the dark

In 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

If you don’t.

I’ll close my eyes,

Then I won’t see

The love you don’t feel

When you’re holding 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.

[Chorus]
