"we never dated" lyrics

You were clever, knew when to deliver your lines
And make it seem like you weren't that bright
You were better in every way by design
You were too good for a man's confine

How come we never even dated
But I still find myself thinkin' of you daily?
Why do you always leave me achin'
When you were never mine for the takin'?

I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me
Babe, I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me
I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me
Babe, I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me

You are a pretty one, nice to romanticize
But you don't make yourself easy to like
You like to have your fun, you dance around the line
Of what is wrong and what is right

How come we never even dated
But I still find myself thinkin' of you daily?
Why do you always leave me achin'
When you were never mine for the takin'?

I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me
Babe, I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me
I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me
Babe, I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me

I wish nothing but the best for you (Ooh)
But I hope who's next sees the rest of you (Oh)

How come we never even dated
But I still find myself thinkin' of you daily?(Still find myself thinkin' of you)
Why do you always leave me achin'
When you were never mine for the takin'? (When you were never mine for the takin'?)
How come we never even dated
But I still find myself thinkin' of you daily? (Still find myself thinking of you)
Why do you always leave me achin'
When you were never mine for the takin'?

I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me
Babe, I can't make you love me
No, I can't make you love me
