I Can't Make You Love Me
(I'm Drifting Alone)
Writers: Michael James Marchesano, Franc Aledia
It’s only been a day since you walked away
And now I’m out to sea, the sky’s turning grey
Everything I do, I do for you
Everything I do comes back to you
I built this boat for two and I choose you
I can’t make you love me if you don’t
I love you, goodbye
I’m an empty bottle, you’re the note
I’m drifting alone
It seems like yesterday since you walked away
Everyday is like our first date for the the captain and her mate
Everything I do, I do for you
Everywhere I go comes back to you
I built this boat for two and I choose you
I can’t make you love me if you don’t
I love you, goodbye
I’m an empty bottle, you’re the note
I’m drifting alone
It’s not enough, lied to myself, it’s what it is
An empty bottle, candlelight, the reason that I live
More than just a memory of something never lived
A kiss that’s never kissed
I can’t make you love me if you don’t I love you, goodbye
I’m an empty bottle, you’re the note I’m drifting alone
