I can't make you love me
It's not there for the taking, your love
I can't make your hands hold me
They're not here for my own want for comfort

You just want a nice beach house
You're goin' on the road
I'm stayin' here at home
Seems like we're rarely at arm's length anymore

I'm in love with someone but it's not right today
I just oughtta be strong and say "Hey, that's the way"

I could be one thousand trees
Yet still long for an ocean
You are the twinkling in my eyes
When the sun hits my mirror
