"I Can't Make You Love Me" lyrics
"I Can't Make You Love Me"
(originally by Bonnie Raitt)
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
'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't
You can't make your heart feel
Something that it won't
And here in the dark
In these final hours
I will lay down my heart
As 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 do not 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
'Cause I can't make your heart feel
Something that it won't
And 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
And I can't make you love me
If you don't
Someone's gonna love me

James Blunt - "The Greatest" Too much to say, too much to lose
I get frustrated thinking 'bout the world I brought you to
It's a battle of time that I have with you
That don't decide the how, the when, or if we'll make it...
Secret Garden - "Greenwaves" I remember a meadow one morning in May.
With a sky full of dreams that sailed in that day.
I was dancing through green waves of grass like the sea
For a moment in time I could feel I was free.
There...
Westlife - "All Out Of Love" I'm lying alone with my head on the phone
Thinking of you 'til it hurts
I know you hurt too but what else can we do
Tormented and torn apart?
I wish I could carry your smile in my heart
For times...
Bette Midler - "Wind Beneath My Wings" Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.
So I was...
Leona Lewis - "Footprints In The Sand" You walked with me, footprints in the sand
And helped me understand where I'm going
You walked with me when I was all alone
With so much unknown along the way
Then I heard you say
I promise you, I'm...
