Can't Please You
Sophie 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
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, these final hours
But 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
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
You won't, no you won't
No you won't, I can't make you love me, if you don't
If you don't, no, no, no
No, no cause I can't make you love me
Sophie Milman’s hauntingly beautiful version of the song “I Can’t Make You Love Me” is a stirring reminder of the struggles we face when dealing with unrequited love. The song explores the painful emotions that arise when one person can’t seem to make another one feel the same way about them. The first verse sets the somber stage as the singer pleads for their lover to turn down the lights and the bed, to quiet the voices inside of their head. The desperation in the singer’s voice when they ask their lover to just hold them close and not to patronize them is truly heart-wrenching.
The chorus then reveals the painful truth – you can’t make someone love you if they don’t feel the same way. The darkness and finality of the mood is palpable as the singer gives up the fight for love. This is a clear indication of the singer’s deep pain as they resign themselves to the fact that their lover does not share the same feelings towards them. The final verse further highlights the agony of unreturned love as the singer closes their eyes in hopes of not feeling the pain of rejection when they hold their lover.
Overall, the song speaks to the struggle we all face when trying to control the feelings of others towards us. Despite giving our all to the person we love, sometimes they just don’t feel the same way. “I Can’t Make You Love Me” captures the essence of that struggle with its beautiful lyrics and soulful melody.
Line by Line Meaning
Turn down the lights, turn down the bed
Dim the lights and make the bed more comfortable
Turn down these voices inside my head
Quiet the thoughts in my mind
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Be honest and genuine with me
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Embrace me with sincerity
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
It's futile to try and make yourself feel love when you don't
Here in the dark, these final hours
In this moment of helplessness and sadness, near the end of our time together
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
I'll express my true emotions with courage
But you won't
But you won't share the same feelings
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
I'll try to deny my pain by closing my eyes
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
The lack of love I feel when I'm in your arms
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Tomorrow I'll make the right decision
Just give me till then to give up this fight
Allow me some time to let go of my hopes for us
And I will give up this fight
I'll surrender and accept the reality
You won't, no you won't
You won't reciprocate my love
No you won't, I can't make you love me, if you don't
It's impossible to make you love me if you don't
If you don't, no, no, no
If you don't feel love for me, it's a definite no
No, no cause I can't make you love me
I can't force you to love me no matter how much I try
