At a table for two

With candlelight and wine

That diamond burnin' holes in his pockets

Thinkin' now's the perfect time

When he popped the question he could see

The teardrops fill her eyes

She said I knew this was comin', and I'm sorry

But I hope you realize



Chorus: You can't make a heart love somebody,

You can tell it what to do

But it won't listen at all

You can't make a heart love somebody

You can lead a heart to love

But you can't make it fall.



Then she reached for his hand

And said I want you to know

I've done everything that I know of

To make the feelin' grow

I've begged and I've pleaded with my heart

But there's no gettin' through

My heart's the only part of me

That's not in love with you



You can't make a heart love somebody,

You can tell it what to do

But it won't listen at all

You can't make a heart love somebody

You can lead a heart to love

But you can't make it fall.



You can't make a heart love somebody,

You can tell it what to do

But it won't listen at all

You can't make a heart love somebody

You can lead a heart to love

But you can't make it fall.



You can lead a heart to love

But you can't make it fall
