Too many unanswered calls, too many broken promises
I wonder how we even lasted this long
How you made this pain worth it
Oh but I don't regret the years that passed us by
And the love I feel my heart just can't deny
I can't make you love me, I can't make you understand
you're everything I need and want, you're everything I have
No matter how much I love you
I can't make you feel what I do
I can't make you love me
The only time it felt right, was when you would hold me tight
I tried to hold on to what we have
but it's just not enough
Oh but I don't regret the time that we wasted
And life without you I just can't face it
I can't make you love me, I can't make you understand
you're everything I need and want, you're everything I have
No matter how hard I try
I can't make you want me tonight
I can't make you love me
I'd give anything and everything to have your love again
I'd do anything and everything to feel your touch again
But I can't look at you everyday and deal with you acting this way
Tell me what you expect me to do when
I can't make you love me, I can't make you understand
you're everything I need and want, you're everything I have
No matter what I feel inside
I can't make you change your mind
I can't make you love me
No-no-no-no
I can't make you love me
Oh-how I wish I could
I can't make you love me--
--like I love you
like I love -- you.
