I Can't Bump
Tyrone Davis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As I packed my bags to leave
I thought she would start to cry
Or sit around my room and grieve
But y'all, the girl
She fooled me this time
She acted like I was
I would like to start all over again
Baby, can I change my mind
I just wanna change my mind
Baby, let me change my mind
As I took those steps
Toward that open door
Knowing all the time
Oh, Lord, I just didn't wanna go
But she didn't give me no sign
Nothing that would
Make me change my mind
I would like to start all over again
Baby, can I change my mind
Please, please, please, baby
I just wanna change my mind
Oh, I played my games
Million times before
But people, let me tell y'all
Oh, I never reached the door
Ooh, the winds howl tonight
I keep lookin' back but my baby's nowhere in sight
I would like to start all over again
Baby, can I change my mind
I just wanna change my mind
Baby, let me change my mind
In Tyrone Davis's song Can I Change My Mind, the singer is expressing regret about leaving his girlfriend. He thought that she would be devastated and try to stop him from leaving, but instead, she acted like he was the last thing on her mind. The singer knows that he made a mistake in leaving and wants to start all over again. He keeps talking about changing his mind and asking his girlfriend if he can come back.
The lyrics in this song show the vulnerability and regret that someone can feel after making a big decision. The singer's girlfriend didn't show how much he meant to her, which made him see things differently. He now realizes that he took her for granted and wants to make things right. The repetition of "Baby, can I change my mind" shows the desperation that the singer feels, and the hope that his girlfriend will take him back. The line "I played my games a million times before" suggests that the singer has a pattern of making mistakes and this time, he wants to break that pattern.

Tyrone Davis is the perfect man of my dreams, my secret admirer and a very good friend of mine and I love this song In The Mood and it's one of the sexiest quiet storm bedroom ballads of all time. That song makes me want to get a little sexy tonight and I like to slow dance to the slinky and seductive melody by the romantic candle lights that ignites the sensual seduction in the nighttime. And best of all, I like to feel the sultry heat of the fire burning very hot with Tyrone Davis and my body has been yearning for love and smooth passion at the stroke of twelve at midnight. RIP Tyrone Davis. Keep on singing up there in soul heaven with the late Luther Vandross, Freddie King, Jackie Wilson, Major Harris and of course, the late
