Somehow thie is exactly the way I've been feeling lately.  I looked for the Bonnie Raitt version but found this one by Clay Aiken.  I wasn't a big Clay Aiken fan but this song just was a match tonight.  Anyone who walks around with a broken hear or feels love slipping or feeling unloved understands.  Women...Love your man....let him know..... / Men....ditto!  Because tomorrow might be too late....

I CAN'T MAKE YOU LOVE ME -  BONNIE RAITT -
verse:
turn down the lights
turn down the bed
turn down these voices
inside my head
lay down with me
tell me no lies
just hold me close
don't patranize
don't patranize

chorus:
i can't make you love me if you don't
you can't make your heart feel
somethin' it wont
here in the dark,in these final hours
i will lay down my heart
and feel the power if you wont
no you wont
cuz i can't make you love me
if you don't

verse:
i'll close my eyes
then i wont see
the love you dont feel
when your holdin' me
morning will come
and i'll do whats right
just give me till then
to give up this fight
and i will give up this fight

(chorus)

People who have suffered much heartbreak are sometimes very fragile and need some reassurance.  Hold those people a little harder...because they need you but have trouble saying.
