(I Can’t Seem to) Make You Mine

Lyrics

[Verse 1] In the silence of the garden Moths are rising on the wind And the beast is pondering love, love, love 'Till the rusty nails grow dim [Chorus] 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 hands [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 hands
