| Adele – I Can't Make You Love Me Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| I think the start of the song is about her denial- she knows what is going on, however she does not want to accept it, however she realizes that it is time to accept that whoever she is singing about, doesn't love her, and she no longer wants them to lie to her or for them to put on an act, she wants to me told the truth instead of being patronized. The chorus is then also about how she knows that she can't make this man that she loves love her back, a lot of emotion is shown in the chorus through the lyrics used. When the lyrics "here in the dark, in these final hours, i will lay down my heart, and i will feel the powers, but you won't, no you won't" are sang, this is saying that accepting and confronting what she feels is really going to hurt her, however she feels it isn't going to hurt then one she loves as they don't love her back like she loves them. The final verses are also about how she doesn't want to accept what is going on, she wants to ignore it "i'll close my eyes, cause then i won't see" however, she knows that she has got to confront it and "do what's right" she knows she has got to "give up this fight" because she knows she can't force somebody in to loving her, and she no longer wants to feel that she is forcing somebody in to loving her because in the end no satisfaction or happiness comes from pretending somebody loves you when you know deep down that they do not. | |
