I Can't Make You Love Me

Will Downing

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



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

These final hours

I will lay down my heart

I feel the power

But you won't

No, you won't

And I can't make you love me

If you don't



I 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 til 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

You can't make your heart feel

Something it won't

Here in the dark

These final hours

I will lay down my heart

I feel the power

But you won't

No, you won't

Nnd I can't make you love me

If you don't



There ain't no use in you trying

If you don't love me Baby!

Ain't no use in you trying

If you don't

If you don't

If you don't

If you don't love me

There ain't nothing I can do
