I Can't Make You Fall in Love Again

I can't make you fall in love again

I can't give you back your innocence

Freedom at last, I know you wanted it

But freedom don't last when you've got no one left

That's just one more thing about you

I don't need in my life

Never gave me goodbye

But you were gone in high school

You walked out of my life

I still wonder sometimes

What would we have been like?

But you were gone in

That's just one more thing about you

I don't need in my life

Never gave me goodbye

But you were gone in high school

You walked out of my life

I still wonder sometimes

What would we have been like?

But you were gone in

I can't make you fall in love again

I can't take away your bitterness

I can't make you fall in love again

I can't give you back your tenderness

Sunday afternoons

Go Adamson's Lagoon

Your blurry old tattoos

My faded jelly shoes

A box of apple juice

I'm always late for school

It was never good enough

We were never good enough

It was never really you

So I can't make you fall in love again

That's just one more thing about you

I don't need in my life

Never gave me goodbye

But you were gone in high school

You walked out of my life

I still wonder sometimes

What would we have been like?

But you were gone in

That's just one more thing about you

I don't need in my life

Never gave me goodbye

But you were gone in high school

You walked out of my life

I still wonder sometimes

What would we have been like?

But you were gone in

The light that afternoon

Exposed the cracks in you

The ones you filled with dust

You're looking so much older

Shoulders folded over

Paint curled in the sun

Now Friday nights, alone

They see you in Flamingo's

For the early show

There's lipstick on your throat

You wore too much cologne

And then you stumble home
