Change My Mind
Holiday Parade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I lose track just a little more I guess
And every time I try to lose myself again
I find I'm just not gone yet,
No doubt we fell in tune,
We fade out just a little bit too soon,
And every day I try to pull myself away
I find I just don't want to,
Every time I try to leave I stall,
Every time I try to turn I fall,
And I don't know why
But there's something that keeps changing my mind,
Try my best to keep the feelings strong,
In a corner up against the wall
And we hold on tight
To that something that keeps changing my mind
You begin to hesitate,
It kicked in just a little bit too late
And every now and then you want to take it back again
To set us both straight and
This song it goes
This stage is the only way I know
When the moment comes you gotta let it all go,
What's a girl to do now?
Every time I try to leave I stall,
Every time I try to turn I fall,
And I don't know why
But there's something that keeps changing my mind,
Try my best to keep the feelings strong,
In a corner up against the wall
And we hold on tight
To that something that keeps changing my mind
I won't give up
The best part of us
When all is said and done,
I hope you all come back around to us,
We all become
So bruised and numb
When you've got to finally say goodbye to what you love
Every time I try to leave I stall,
Every time I try to turn I fall,
And I don't know why
But there's something that keeps changing my mind,
Try my best to keep the feelings strong,
In a corner up against the wall
And we hold on tight
To that something that keeps changing my mind
Every time I try to leave I stall,
Every time I try to turn I fall,
And I don't know why
Cause there's something that keeps changing my mind,
Try my best to keep the feelings strong
In a corner up against the wall
And we hold on tight
To that something that keeps changing my mind
