A Song for You / I Can’t Make You Love Me Lyrics by Lea Salonga

2017

I've been so many places
In my life and times
I've sung a lot of songs
And I've made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my life on stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone
And I'll be singing this song to you
I know your image of me
Is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkind
But darling can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Baby can't you please see through me
But we're alone now
And I'll be singing this song to you
You taught me precious secrеts
Of the truth withholding nothing
You came out in front
When I was hiding
But now I'm so much bеtter
And if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody
'Cause my love is in there hiding
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 it won'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
You came out in front
When I was hiding
Listen to the melody
Won't you listen
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
And I can't make you love me
If you don't
If you don't
