(I Can't Seem To) Make You Mine Lyrics

In the silence of the garden

Moths arising on the wind

And the Beast is pondering love, love, love

Till the rusty nails grow dim



I can't seem to make you mine

Through the long and lonely night

And I try so hard, darling

But the crowd pulled you away

Through the ribbons and the rain

And the ivy coiled around my hand



So I lingered with the people

In the silent August glade

But the rain has brought the night

And the night has brought the rain



I can't seem to make you mine

Through the long and lonely night

And I try so hard, darling

But the crowd pulled you away

Through the ribbons and the rain

And the ivy coiled around my hand
