Lyrics
I Can't Make You Happy

V1
I 'm cryin' again,
After another sleepless night.
I tried lovin' you,
But can't seem to get it right.
I feel so helpless,
Keep wonderin' what's the use?
The harder I try,
Keeps me drownin'in your abuse.
Chorus:
If I can't make you happy,
Our happiness can never be.
If I can't make you happy,
Are you ready to set me free?
V2
You're so demanding?
You want everything your way.
I lost my respect,
And don't have a reason to stay.
Chorus:
If I can't make you happy,
Our happiness can never be.
If I can't make you happy,
Are you ready to set me free?
Bridge:
We used to so happy,
Laughing as love grew stronger every day.
What happened to us?
Why can't love be like it was yesterday?
Chorus:
If I can't make you happy,
Our happiness can never be.
If I can't make you happy,
Are you ready to set me free?
