Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you can't go back to sleep,
Change your mind.
When your weak all alone,
And you're reachin' for the phone,
Change your mind.
Even when you think it's wrong,
When you look back in regret,
The moment that you left.
Change your mind,
Baby don't come back this time,
Don't wanna have to say goodbye,
All over again
So if you think there's still a chance to make it right,
And I'm the only one you want tonight,
Change your mind,
Change your mind.
In the early mornin' haze,
When my kiss is all you crave,
Let it go.
'Cause I don't wanna do that dance,
The push and pull,
The second chance,
I already know,
Yea I know.
You'll just promise me forever,
And then you'll take it back,
Just like that,
Sayin' you can live with out me,
Then you'll'
Change your mind,
So baby don't come back this time,
Don't wanna have to say goodbye,
All over again
So if you think there's still a chance to make it right,
Change your mind.
'Cause z I don't wanna have to say goodbye,
All over again
So if you think there's still a chance to make it right.
And I'm the only one,
The one you want tonight,
Change your mind,
Change your mind,
Change your mind.
"Change Your Mind" is a song about the emotional back and forth of a tumultuous relationship, and the struggle to move on from it. The lyrics describe the feelings of the singer towards their ex-lover, who seems to keep coming back into their life, causing confusion, pain and regret. The chorus urges the person to make up their mind and either commit to staying or leaving for good, so the singer doesn't have to go through the heartbreak of saying goodbye all over again.
The first verse shows that the singer is aware that their ex-lover is struggling to let go, and the chorus suggests that the person needs to make a definitive decision in order to move on. The second verse reveals that the singer is exhausted by the constant push and pull of the relationship, and implores the ex-lover to either stay or go, without making empty promises. The repetition of the phrase "change your mind" underlines the theme of indecision, and how it can cause pain for both parties involved.

[Verse 1:]
When you wake wanting me
And you can't go back to sleep
Change your mind

Even when you when you think it's wrong
When you look back in regret
The moment that you left

Change your mind

Say you can't live without me, then you'll

These two could make a beautiful cd together, just them, no other Nashville artists needed. These two and the Rayna's daughters are why I keep watching the show, The talent from the costars is breath taking.

Still, breathtaking. I know Ill listen to this for years and years, until I'm old and in a nursing home and when I hear it I'll be 23 again, close to tears, thinking about how I lost her. π
