By Sung by George Michael
Date: 11 December 1998
I can't make you love me
turn down the light
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 patronise
'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 in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
I will 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 are holding me
mornin' will come and I'll do what is right
just give me till then to give up the 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 in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
I will feel the power
but you won't, no you won't
'cause I can't make you love me if you don't
