Can I Change My Mind
Regretful Reflections: Can I Rewrite Our Story?
Lyrics
She didn't bat an eye, as I packed my bags to leave
She remained indifferent as I prepared to leave by packing my belongings.
I thought she would cry, or sit around my room and grieve
I expected her to display emotions like crying or mourning in my absence.
But oh the girl she fooled me this time
However, she deceived or tricked me on this occasion.
Acting like I was the last thing on her mind
She acted as if I was the least important thing on her mind.
Now I'd like to start all over again
Expressing a desire to reset and begin anew.
I just want to change my mind
A plea to reverse a decision or change one's mind.
As I took those steps, toward that open door
While moving toward leaving.
Knowing all the time, oh Lord I just didn't wanna go
Despite my awareness, I didn't actually want to depart.
She didn't give me no sign
She didn't offer any signals or indications.
Nothing that would make me wanna change my mind
No actions or gestures from her encouraged me to reconsider.
And I would like to start all over again
Expressing the desire for a fresh start.
Baby, can I change my mind
A query about reversing a decision.
'Cause I would like to change my mind
Repeatedly expressing the desire to change one's mind.
You know, I was confused, sitting here by myself thinking
Feeling uncertain and lost in thoughts about the situation.
watching you walk to the door and walk away
Observing the departure of the person and feeling unsure about what to say or do.
what was I supposed to say change your mind
Questioning what action or words could have altered their decision.
Oh I've played my game so many times before
Reflecting on past experiences of attempting to leave.
But people let me tell y'all, that I never reached the door
Despite trying to leave before, they never completed the departure.
Oh the wind it is high tonight
Describing a restless or unsettled atmosphere.
I keep lookin' for my baby but she's not in sight
Searching for someone (the partner) but unable to find them.
And I would like to start all over again
Expressing the wish for a fresh beginning.
Baby can I change my mind
Asking for permission to reverse a decision.
'Cause I would like to start all over again
Reiterating the desire for a new start.
Baby can I change my, my mind
Repeating the plea to change one's mind.
'Cause I would like to start all over again with you girl
Expressing the desire for a fresh beginning specifically with the partner.
