Get Your Sexy Name

It's been two weeks since I last cried. Sobbed would be more appropriately. Sobbed shamelessly. It has been a while since i felt that vulnerable.

I Can't Make You Love Me
(M. Reid/A. Shamblin) as Performed by Bonnie Raitt (Luck of the Draw 1991)
Locally, re-recorded by Nina (Janis and I would sing this on our way to and from Baclaran church)

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: 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 lonely hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll 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'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: 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 lonely hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
