You can't make somebody love you, You can't make somebody care No matter how you try In the end you're still gonna cry If he's just ain't there I could hold her in my arms And it make me feel so fine But it hurts me all the same When she call out a name and it ain't mine You can't make somebody love you, You can't make somebody care No matter how you try In the end you're still gonna cry If he's just ain't there Three long years I call her darling Three long years slipped away Then her man come back again She up and run to him Like it ain't been a day You can't make somebody love you, You can't make somebody care No matter how you try In the end you're still gonna cry If he's just ain't there
