Jay Tighe - I Can't Make You Stay

I tried to share with you the feelings in my heart
The thoughts I was going through
Not you, you couldn't say
You didn't know how to just communicate
To you it's easier
Emotions to the side
Focus on the happier
Not sure when your feelings turned
You kept them bottled up we were bound to get burned

You wanted everything or so you'd say
Made me believe that you had changed your ways
I guess it's time that I move on outta your way

Because I can't make you stay
Nothing else left to say
Time to part ways
Every little thing that you said to me well none of it ended up true
I can't make you stay
Every little thing that you gave to me I'm giving it back to you
I can't make you stay
Every little thing that you did for me reminded me through and through
I can't make you stay
Every little thing that you promised me turned into a lie like you

You told me you love me
You said that you were never gonna leave
I know what forever means
It sure ain't the hand that you just dealt me
So now I'm supposed to feel like all the plans none of them were real
Not sure when your feelings turned
You kept them bottled up we were bound to get burned

You wanted everything or so you'd say
Made me believe that you had changed your ways
I guess it's time that I move on outta your way

Because I can't make you stay
Nothing else left to say
Time to part ways

Every little thing that you said to me well none of it ended up true
I can't make you stay
Every little thing that you gave to me I'm giving it back to you
I can't make you stay
Every little thing that you did for me reminded me through and through
I can't make you stay
Every little thing that you promised me turned into a lie like you
Because I can't make you stay
I can't make you stay
Just be on your way
I can't make you stay
