If I Could Change Your Mind

I prefer to spend my time in solitary ways Keepin' myself to myself Can't pretend that it's been easy Since you went away Livin' with somebody else If you should change your mind If you would turn around and look behind If you could see me The way I used to be At the risk of bringing back the sorrow and despair I would do it all again Holding on to memories and pretending not to care Knowing that the show was soon to end If only I could change your mind If only you would change If I had the chance I'd do it all again I would do it all again I remember windy shores on melancholy days Drifting along with the tide And the joy of simple things and ordinary ways Takin' it all in my stride If you should change your mind If I could let you see what lies behind If you could need me The way it used to be Even for the moment of the happy times we shared Living in my dreams since then At the risk of losing only castles in the air Come with me and we can try again Oh, oh Oh, if I could change your mind Can't pretend it's not been lonely since you went away Oh, if only I could change your mind If I could change your mind If I could change your mind If I could change your mind
