Friends try to set you up, try to find you someone new
They say you’ll get along, you’re just alike, she’s perfect for you
But you can’t help, you can’t help who you love
She could be so beautiful, it don’t even make no sense
Might dance with her all night, but you never call her again
‘Cause you can’t help, you can’t help who you love

Everybody’s got somebody
Not just anybody
But the one
That you can’t help who you love

Yeah, they might have broke your heart, might have really messed you up
You went ahead and cut them off, but you still ain’t had enough
No you can’t help, you can’t help who you love
You could try out all those things, every song’ll tell you what to do
Go out get drunk, and well it don’t work ’cause it ain’t up to you
No you can’t help, you can’t help who you love

Everybody’s got somebody
Not just anybody
But the one
That you can’t help who you love

Always be there for
When they’re standing at your door
You’re gonna let them back in again, and again, and again
‘Cause you can’t help who you love

Oh, you can’t help
No, you can’t help
No, you can’t help who you love

I’ve tried to get over us, I’ve done all I can do
That’s why I’m giving up, that’s why I’m calling you
Guess you can’t help, you can’t help who you love
