Change

My mama always did her best for me I grew up on a quiet street Straight out of school up the woods barefeet Having a smoke down the shop discreet I wasn't bad but I wasn't that good I couldn't always do the things I should Too loud, too proud, too rude Full speed ahead down a dead end route (Things just stay the same) You tell me You've been gone for so long Why don't you stay a while? I miss carrying on like I was just a child Something about you makes me wish that I wasn't me But I don't wanna change I took a trip to the end of the street And I've been known for being indiscrete It felt to me like I'd been gone for a week But I was back home in time for my tea I had dreams of being far away Making my life in a different way Sometimes it's hard to appreciate The things you have 'til they're gone away (Things just stay the same) You tell me You've been gone for so long Why don't you stay a while? I miss carrying on like I was just a child Something about you makes me wish that I wasn't me I tell you If I sit here a while, will you just talk to me? I need time to remember what I'm doing here Something about you makes me wish that I wasn't me But I don't wanna change When I first left, home wasn't somewhere I could place Now I'm on the train from Glasgow, over to the west coast, hey yeah Walking down the street, man, I know every beat and face Bring my memories round and round like a mixtape (Things just stay the same) You tell me You've been gone for so long Why don't you stay a while? I miss carrying on like I was just a child Something about you makes me wish that I wasn't me I tell you If I sit here a while, will you just talk to me? I need time to remember what I'm doing here Something about you makes me wish that I wasn't me Makes me wish that I wasn't me If I sit here a while, will you just talk to me? I need time to remember what I'm doing here Something about you makes me wish that I wasn't me Makes me wish that I wasn't me
