Change Your Mind
Courage Call Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ive been thinking about it, lately, thats really all i do
Come to think i cant think, oh no,
Without me thinking about you
Its hard for me to say it, it gets harder every day
But ever since you left me no i havent been the same
I gotta be honest i think its time that i told you
Ive tried and ive tried but i still cant get over you
I think its driving me crazy

I think youve gotta be blind
Why cant you see what youre leaving behind?
What would it take to change your mind
I am ready to chase you for the rest of my life
Tell me what to do tell me what to say
Tell me who to be to make you wanna stay
Even if it takes all my time
Ill change your mind
Ive been thinking about it, ive been thinking about a plan
Its gone on for far too long its gotten out of hand
Ill board the doors to your house
Ill take the keys to your car
Ill do whatever it takes to keep you from getting too far
Im not goin crazy im just going wherever you are
She says she needs time
She says she needs some space
She says she needs to find her self
To find her place she needs to get away
To unwind, collect her thoughts and clear her mind

Well find yourself and take your time
But where you go i wont be far behind
