The Clientele - (I Can't Seem To) Make You Mine lyrics

(Verse 1)

In the silence of the garden

Moss arizing on the wind

And the beast is pondering love love love

'Till the rusty nail 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 rhythm and the rain

And the ivy coiled around my hand

(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

(Repeat Chorus)
