"I Can't Make You Love Me" lyrics

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Turn down those voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, 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 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 '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
And 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
