At a table for two
With candle light and wine
That diamond burning holes in his pocket
Thinking now's the perfect time

When he popped the question, he could see
The teardrops fill her eyes
She said, I knew this was coming and I'm sorry
But I hope you realize

You can't make a heart love somebody
You can tell it what to do
But it won't listen at all

You can't make a heart love somebody
You can lead a heart to love
But you can't make it fall

Then she reached for his hand and said
I want you to know
I've done everything that I know of
To make this feeling grow

I've begged and I've pleaded with my heart
But there's no getting through
My heart's the only part of me
That's not in love with you

You can't make a heart love somebody
You can tell it what to do
But it won't listen at all

You can't make a heart love somebody
You can lead a heart to love
But you can't make it fall

You can't make a heart love somebody
You can tell it what to do
But it won't listen at all

You can't make a heart love somebody
You can lead a heart to love
But you can't make it fall

You can lead a heart to love
But you can't make it fall
