Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
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.

Chorus:
'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.

Chorus (1x)
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.      Chorus:   '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.      Chorus (1x)
