(Michael McDonald And John Scott Sherrill)
|
You if anyone should know what time will tell
|
Not so long ago you taught me oh so well
|
Now your time has come
|
Someone took your place
|
(there's) no need to tell me that he's gone ('cause)
|
I can read it on your face
|
|
You learned that you could dream every night
|
You can try all you like
|
You can pray every day that it's enough
|
You can hope all you want
|
It's something to hang your faith on
|
But you can't make it love
|
|
There's no way love can grow
|
If only one is true
|
I would think that you should know
|
After all, I learned this from you
|
No matter how much one's in love
|
As long as one is lying
|
There ain't no amount of tears
|
There ain't no amount of trying
|
|
You learned that you could dream every night
|
You can try all you like
|
You can pray every day that it's enough
|
You can hope all you want
|
It's something to hang your faith on
|
But you can't make it love
|

You Can't Make It Love
