At a table for two
With candlelight and wine
That diamond burnin' holes in his pocket
Thinkin' now's the perfect time

You can tell it what to do
But you can't make it fall
You can lead a heart to love
You can't make a heart love somebody
You can't make a heart love somebody
But you can't make it fall
The teardrops fill her eyes
But it won't listen at all
I've done everything that I know of
You can't make a heart love somebody
You can tell it what to do
You can't make a heart love somebody
With candlelight and wine
And said, "I want you to know
To make the feelin' grow"
Songwriters: Steve Clark, Johnny Macrae
But it won't listen at all
Thinkin' now's the perfect time
Then she reached for his hand
You can lead a heart to love
But you can't make it fall
You can lead a heart to love
You can tell it what to do
But you can't make it fall
That diamond burnin' holes in his pocket
When he popped the question he could see
My heart's the only part of me
That's not in love with you"
She said, "I knew this was comin' and I'm sorry
But I hope you realize"
Publishers: DIXIE STARS MUSIC (ASCAP), LITTLE BEAGLE MUSIC
But it won't listen at all
But there's no gettin' through
At a table for two
"I've begged and I've pleaded with my heart
And you can lead a heart to love
You can't make a heart love somebody
You can't make a heart love somebody
