(Don Henley and Danny Kortchmar)
|
You can make money, you can make good friends
|
You can make mistakes and you can make amends
|
You can make it easy when push comes to shove, but-
|
You can't make love
|
|
You can make advances, you can make big plans
|
Plant sloppy kisses all over her hands
|
You can tell her everything you're dreamin' of but-
|
You can't make love
|
|
Love's a little word that's been kicked around
|
Used too much, beaten down
|
What in the world are you thinkin' of?
|
You can't make love
|
|
You can go through the motions with your magic spells
|
Buy all the potions the Fifth Avenue sells
|
You can try to call down all the stars above, but-
|
You can't make love
|
|
You can buy her diamonds, you can go out in style
|
You can make a promise, you can walk down the aisle
|
You can make a life for her that fits like a glove, but-
|
You can't make love
|
|
Oh, it takes so long
|
You gotta be strong
|
Before it's gone
|
What in the world were you thinkin' of, boy-
|
You can't make love
|

You Can't Make Love
