I played this on loop while driving 3,500 miles cross-country... singing & bawling my brains out, as my old world crumbled around me to make way for the exponentially better life I ran TO. This song marked a memorable turning point.
This song rang true for me during a break up with someone special. Happy ending though...we got back together and have been happily married for 26 years now!
Baby, you will NEVER be enough for the wrong man. The right one will come along and you’ll never have to wonder- you’ll just know he loves you. You’re going to find the right man, darlin’, but you have to let go of the wrong one to make room for him. Sending you healing and love.
Most people have had times in their life in which they wished they could make someone love them. It's so painful to love someone, and they don't feel the same.
I ❤ this song! Because the truth speaks volumes. To just how cold-hearted some people can be. When they play with others' feelings and use them. It reminds me of that song by Patti Smyth and Don Henley. "Sometimes Love Just Isn't Enough." And some of you say. "Move on," "Get over it," and "Get past it?" Oh that's your answer? Where's your compassion? You shouldn't be telling others. How to handle a break up. Instead listen and provide comfort and assurance. That they can get through it. Because they can and will in time.
My two oldest children that I had with my ex wife estranged themselves from me and my wife and our son. My ex alienated them, taught them to hate me. I think of them when I hear this😢
That’s fuck up man that’s not right but the thing is keep fighting they will see it bro and you will know that your kids never stop it’s just your ex . Trust me u couldn’t see my dad because he was in jail and now he wants his times with me when he had it all it’s gone I’m grown up but for you it’s definitely different then mines .keep pushing don’t let her get the best of you aloha brother stay bless 😊
Me too I did all I could for my kids begged stole and borrowed but now they hate me for it and love there dad he's told so many lies to kidsxand his nanny girlfriends
I played this so much, that i'd buy 2or3 cassettes at a time!!! I'd go on a road trip and play this tape over and over!!! You are the first artist that got my sole! I think the cassette was called "street lights"!!! I'm so happy that I still have these songs in my head!!! They've helped me thru my life!!! I loved you before anybody knew who you were!!! I knew you were a beautiful star❣️❣️❣️ thank you so much!!❣️☺️👍😊👍❣️
This song is an emotion,it's hurts,but it's also bittersweet,like an emotion you can't describe,it hurts to be heartbroken but it also feels good in a way I can't explain
I feel sad that my love for my “late in life romance” is not what my partner feels for me. Harsh reality at age 72 years old. Perhaps my widowhood colored my loneliness.

LYRICS: Turn down the lights Turn down the bed Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me Tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
Cant make someone love u if that is not what they feel in their heart. No matter how much u love them they cant return that love if they dont feel it. And no matter how strong ur love is it will never b enough for both of u. U have to recieve love back and if they dont feel it nothing is ever enough to chage how they feel.
I listen this song because my love put it as the song for his post in instagram. Beautiful song, as much as beautiful he is. Tian, I love you❤ i cry missing you so much as i listening this song.
Trying to make someone to love you worst thing you've ever can do dearly because there will be then walking away from it and you're stalking them is not helping yelling at them not going to solve the problem because it make it worse dearly and yelling for stupid things don't help it just just trying to control the person that isn't right shamefull drama because someone going to get hurt out of All chaos and that what he doing to them
Kept thinking if not today there is always tomorrow maybe if I try a lil harder if I love a lil more if I keep on being there so maybe but no I only earned respect and pity its a shame
Men who have gotten divorced because they are alcoholic and then they admitted it was their selfish behavior still in 💕 and they are still in love with the memories of what could have been if they had stopped drinking
I feel the same way. When God was giving lifetime soulmates to people he forgot about me. I keep getting hurt in every relationship I have been in. I'm going through a difficult time in my relationship. My boyfriend is trying to leave me for another woman and he doesn't know how to tell me he doesn't want me anymore.😢😢

HOPE THING'S GOT BETTER FOR YOU GOD BLESS..
Same 😔
❤❤❤ 💯 !!

Epic comment. I can relate.
Saying you love me doesn’t make it so. Showing you love does.
The difficulty is that real love is both unconditional and unilateral. As the song says, the power is in the loving, not the being loved.
This song rang true for me during a break up with someone special. Happy ending though...we got back together and have been happily married for 26 years now!
Hoping the same for my situation. We are apart and he is not taking to me. I hope he finds his way back to me again. I truly love and miss him.
An incredible song about the death of a relationship. I understand too well. Beautifully done. Thank you for the video.
Playing on repeat realizing no matter how hard I try to show him how good I am, I can't make him love me😢
I know the feeling only too well....
Me too miss, we'll be okay though
Baby, you will NEVER be enough for the wrong man. The right one will come along and you’ll never have to wonder- you’ll just know he loves you. You’re going to find the right man, darlin’, but you have to let go of the wrong one to make room for him. Sending you healing and love.
I'm feeling the same thing....The girl I like doesn't like me back the same
@@GangsterDad-ly8ot Story of my life, GangsterDad!
One of beautiest songs I ever heard.
Beautiful voice,beautiful lyrics and beautiful instrumental.
❤️❤️❤️
Sometimes love just not enough to win someone's heart
..I love him,still,tho ❤❤
its 4 in the morning, i didn't need to cry this hard.
Hey, it was probably good for you. Did you ever notice much better you feel after a good cry?
Better to have loved & lost , than to have never loved at all .
❤️❤️❤️
I am not so sure about that sometimes
May you be blessed
Sometimes love just pummels you
I agree 💯. I was blessed to have known him 🖕🏼😢🃏I gained! I didn't lose anything by loving him! It's true
Most people have had times in their life in which they wished they could make someone love them. It's so painful to love someone, and they don't feel the same.
I came straight to this song because that is how I feel. Recognize it, accept it, and move on. Very Intense Song!😢❤
seriously same, i'm in a very dark spot right now with life and this song is the words i just cant say myself
@tanzfang3610 It won't be overnight, but that dark spot gets much lighter in time 💜💜 Day by day
Very sad lyrics.a love that don't exist on her partner.can feel the sadness of this woman.😢beautiful sentimental song
Very very powerful song about loving someone truth is you cant force love thats not gone work
True, and even if you get the person , it will never be what you want it to be.
Unrequited love is SO PAINFUL but it's a truth of life. All you can do is accept it and perhaps something genuine will come 😢😢😢
@@bubblybubbles4023WHEW!!! So true! I have to tell myself this
I just love tacos

Show’m how it’s done Bonnie
I’ve loved this song so many years. She does it so right.
Love is a choice. . it's not just a four letter word.💗 God bless you all.💗When I say "I love you" . . I mean it.💗
Maybe one day love will love me back
That made my mouth drop open.
@devinelyguideangel4334
I hope it finds you too! 🙂

❤I LOVE BONNIE RAITT. Omg I can not get enough of her. She has got my heart loving her 🎶. Thank you Bonnie. Can't get enough of you. ❤❤
Just a pure song about real life.
My stepfather loved this song. Rest in peace, Pop 🙏🏾❤
my dad did too ❤ rip to both of them
@@KM-ql4eb Thank you ❤
Can't lose what you never had 😢
Great point.
Letting go means to come to the realization that some people are a part of your history, but not a part of your destiny.

You can't hurt me if I don't allow it.
This song is an emotion,it's hurts,but it's also bittersweet,like an emotion you can't describe,it hurts to be heartbroken but it also feels good in a way I can't explain
Whoever people who makes this song, as long you love me.
i do love you
I feel sad that my love for my “late in life romance” is not what my partner feels for me. Harsh reality at age 72 years old. Perhaps my widowhood colored my loneliness.
At 72, why don't you be grateful for having someone in your life without expecting him to love you?
I cried so hard to this song rn….
Beautiful beautiful love song🥀oh Bonnie you nailed it 😊I 💕💕💕💕💕💕 it💙🥀

Beautiful song
To experience true love is the epitome of life
I'll close my eye's then I won't see the love you don't feel when you're holding me
I felt that in my soul. That was a hard punch to the gut.
Yes, you cannot make someone love you and never try to.
I am so grateful Steve for the three years we had before I was incancerated and you fell victim full time to your first love, Stella. Love you always despite ....this was your song xx❤
U really love someone with yrs whole heart & she dame u for those peoples out there n thank u for the beautiful song❤

Still singing 12-2024
LYRICS:
Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
THE HEART THANKS 🎶💘
SAD ,BUT TRUE!! LOVE IS NEVER FORCED NOR UNSURE!
So beautiful sad 😢
🥀🥀this message is so beautiful🥀I cannot make you love me if you don't🎑🐦🎑
Sometimes u gotta learn to let go, even wen it hurts😢
Dealing with this right now and it’s killing me.
Truthful song
I’m going through a broken heart now.
Cant make someone love u if that is not what they feel in their heart. No matter how much u love them they cant return that love if they dont feel it. And no matter how strong ur love is it will never b enough for both of u. U have to recieve love back and if they dont feel it nothing is ever enough to chage how they feel.
❤ love is always beautiful ❤️
So true u can’t force love
it's hard to love someone if you don't understand them.
Saddest song ever written….my “gf” today ripped my heart out too
Teddy Swimms has done a great cover if this sad but beautiful song
I've had a few that I've loved unfortunately they didn't really love me like the song says you can't make them love you if they don't
Oh love all the time
I ❤ u
Tearrrs
And I giving up my fight….
I listen this song because my love put it as the song for his post in instagram. Beautiful song, as much as beautiful he is. Tian, I love you❤ i cry missing you so much as i listening this song.
❤️❤️❤️
Sure...so true this song😢
💛
Even do I. YOU NEVER DID.
WHY SHOULD I.
Great song but to be fair Bonnie can sing the phone book and make it sound great
Trying to make someone to love you worst thing you've ever can do dearly because there will be then walking away from it and you're stalking them is not helping yelling at them not going to solve the problem because it make it worse dearly and yelling for stupid things don't help it just just trying to control the person that isn't right shamefull drama because someone going to get hurt out of All chaos and that what he doing to them
Kept thinking if not today there is always tomorrow maybe if I try a lil harder if I love a lil more if I keep on being there so maybe but no I only earned respect and pity its a shame
Why am I super allergic to this song? 😭
Oh no it's not when your heart is crushed!
😊i am sorry i can't make you love me.
Men who have gotten divorced because they are alcoholic and then they admitted it was their selfish behavior still in 💕 and they are still in love with the memories of what could have been if they had stopped drinking
Bamboo brought me here😂
Baby I will lay down my heart so that you can fell the Power🧡👀🧡👀🧡👀🧡👀🧡👀🧡👀🧡👀
❤
❤
AJP It is for you.
I already did for some time now
😣😖😫
Listen to it by Tank
Men you can’t live w them and u can’t kill them
Everytime I hear this song I wonder if my husband is still in love with me 😢
I've realized I'm not meant to be loved🥹
I feel the same way. When God was giving lifetime soulmates to people he forgot about me. I keep getting hurt in every relationship I have been in. I'm going through a difficult time in my relationship. My boyfriend is trying to leave me for another woman and he doesn't know how to tell me he doesn't want me anymore.😢😢
Sad
TFW you learn that this song was inspired by a guy who shot up his girlfriend's car while drunk.
In turmoil over my twin flame who keeps rejecting me.
Almost 16 years later and we still can't get it together.
I'm loosing hope!
