SIT DOWN THIS TIME YOU NEED TO LISTEN
DON'T ACT LIKE YOU'RE TO BUSY
CAUSE THIS ISN'T GONNA WAIT
WE DON'T TALK WE DON'T TOUCH
AND I'M NOT SURE YOU'RE STILL IN LOVE
OR EVEN WANT TO BE CAUSE YOU WON'T TALK TO ME

I CAN MAKE THIS HOUSE A HOME
I CAN BE HERE SO YOU'RE NOT ALONE
I CAN DO MOST ANYTHING IF I THOUGHT IT MATTERED
I CAN BE YOUR LOVER AND YOUR FRIEND
BE YOUR SHELTER IF THE SKY FALLS IN
BUT THERE'S ONE THING I CAN'T DO
I CAN'T MAKE YOU LOVE ME IF YOU DON'T WANT TO

CAN YOU HEAR ME WELL DO YOU EVEN SEE ME
THIS DISTANCE BETWEEN US
SURE WON'T SOLVE ITSELF
I COULD PACK MY THINGS AND GO
BUT WHAT I REALLY NEED TO KNOW
IS IF YOU WANT ME TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO

I CAN MAKE THIS HOUSE A HOME
I CAN BE HERE SO YOU'RE NOT ALONE
I CAN DO MOST ANYTHING IF I THOUGHT IT MATTERED
I CAN BE YOUR LOVER AND YOUR FRIEND
BE YOUR SHELTER IF THE SKY FALLS IN
BUT THERE'S ONE THING I CAN'T DO
I CAN'T MAKE YOU LOVE ME IF YOU DON'T WANT TO

OH IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT I'VE SAID OR DONE
PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND
CAUSE THERE'S NOTHING THAT I WOULDN'T CHANGE
IF I THOUGHT YOU GAVE A DAM

I CAN MAKE THIS HOUSE A HOME
I CAN BE HERE SO YOU'RE NOT ALONE
I CAN DO MOST ANYTHING IF I THOUGHT IT MATTERED
I CAN BE YOUR LOVER AND YOUR FRIEND
BE YOUR SHELTER IF THE SKY FALLS IN
BUT THERE'S ONE THING I CAN'T DO
I CAN'T MAKE YOU LOVE ME IF YOU DON'T WANT TO
NO I CAN'T MAKE YOU LOVE ME BUT I SURE WANT YOU TO
