original text at lyrnow.com/1998781
Verse 1
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 patronize
Don't patronize me

Chorus
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

Instrumental Break

Verse 2
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel, when you're holding me
Morning will come, I'll do what's right
Just give me till then, to give up this fight

Chorus
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, you won't
