i can't make you love me

Singer: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. 'cuz 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. 'cuz 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.
