At a table for two with candlelight and wine
That diamond burning holes in his pocket
Thinking now’s the perfect time
When he popped the question he could see
The teardrops fill her eyes
She said I knew this was coming
And I’m sorry, but I hope you realise

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 feeling roll
I’ve begged and I’ve pleaded with my heart
But there’s no getting 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
