I Can't Make You Love Me / Nick of Time Songtext

von Bon Iver

Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices
They're inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close
And don't patronize me
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
Here in the dark
In these final hours
I will lay down my heart
If I feel the power, but you don't
No, you don't

'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't
If you dont
No, you 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 till then
To give up this fight.

And I will give up this fight.

'Cause I can't make you love me
If you don't
I can't make your heart feel
Something it won't
Here in the dark
In these final hours
I will lay down my heart
If I feel the power, but you don't
No, you don't

I can't make you love me if you don't
If you don't
No you, no you won't

I found love, darling
I found love, darling
I found love, darling, yeah, baby darling
I found love, darling, yeah
I found love, darling, darling, darling
Love in the knick of time

I found love, darling, yeah
Love in the knick of time
