Don't Change
Simplified Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What if I told you I was happy
Just strolling around with you
That I could live my life just like this
There's nothing else I need to do

The way they talk it gets down on me
They say some dreams won't come true
And they look and they doubt and they scream and they shout to no avail
Cause I've got you, don't I?, Said don't I?

Please don't change your, please don't change your mind

Whatever this world lays before us
I know that we can make it through
Cause with you by my side, I take it all, all in stride
And I can do this with you
Cause what do they know about us
Always they put up a fuss
Making it easy to see
Why you would have doubts about me
But don't I, said don't I

Please don't change your, please don't change your mind

It comes and it goes, keeps you up on your toes
But it's so good to be when you are next to me
So please don't change your, please don't change your mind

So please don't change your, please don't change your mind

There you are girl I've been looking for you
And there's so many things that we're going to do
Look in my eyes now there's nothing to say




Because all I am thinking you know anyway
Please don't change your, please don't change your mind
