I Can't Make You Love Me
Aiza Seguerra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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 and I'll feel the power
'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
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
Ain't no use in crying, baby.
The lyrics of Aiza Seguerra's song "I Can't Make You Love Me" speaks about a person's plea for love and acceptance. The song starts with an almost intimate setting where the singer asks the other person to turn down the lights and voices inside their head. The singer then asks the other person to lay down with them and hold them close without lying or patronizing them. This person is yearning for love and acceptance but can't seem to get it from the other person.
As the song progresses, the singer expresses their helplessness in making the other person love them. They acknowledge that love cannot be forced and that one's heart cannot feel something that it won't. The singer states that even in the dark and lonely hours, they will lay down their heart and feel the power of love, but the other person won't because they simply can't make them love them if they don't.
The song then ends with the singer acknowledging that there is no use in crying over someone who cannot reciprocate the love they desire. This song speaks to the pain of unrequited love and the realization that sometimes, no matter how much we want someone to love us back, it simply can't be forced.

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Lowering the lights, making the bed more comfortable
Turn down these voices inside my head
Silencing the self-doubt in my mind
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Sharing physical intimacy without deception
Just hold me close, don't patronize don't patronize me
Offering support without condescension
Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
It's impossible to force someone to love you
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
You cannot control the feelings of your heart
Here in the dark, in these final hours
In this moment of vulnerability and truth
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
My heart is exposed, vulnerable, and strong
But you won't, no you won't
You are not able to reciprocate these emotions
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
It is a hopeless situation that cannot be changed
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
Avoiding the reality that you don't love me
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
The emotions you cannot reciprocate when we're together
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
I will accept reality and move on
Just give me till then to give up this fight
Allow me time to come to terms with the situation
And I will give up this fight
I will let go of my attempt to change the situation
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
It is impossible to make someone love you
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
You cannot force your heart to have certain emotions
Here in the dark, in these lonely hours
In this time of solitude and heartache
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
I will remain strong despite my broken heart
But you won't, no you won't
You are not capable of loving me
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
It is futile to try to change how you feel
Ain't no use in crying, baby
There's no point in continuing to cry
