Changing Your Mind
What's so funny is nobody's laughing
At this change of heart your having
What's so funny is I'm filled up with thunder
I can't seem to get out from under all these stones
That you tied to my chest
I can't change your mind
And I can't change your mind
What's so funny is I'm scared and lonely
And I don't think I'm the only one
As I watch you drive away
And what's so funny is the birds are singing
The sun is shining and the bells are ringing
And I'm thinking, "What happened here?"
And I can't change your mind
And I can't change your mind
I can't change your mind
I can't change your mind
There's a chapel in Minneapolis
Holds the bones of a dead saint in it
And the stained glass glows from the ceiling there
It reminds me of the feeling when I first looked into your eyes
Saw the most beautiful birds fly straight into the sun
With their wings on fire and the deed was done
Oh, and I can't change your mind
I can't change your mind
I can't change your mind
I can't change your mind
What's so funny is this piece of skin
The one on my arm with your name inked in
What was I thinking?
What's so funny is the way things go down
Like when a star dies it doesn't make a sound
It's just gone
And you can't find it when you look into the sky
I can't change your mind
I can't change your mind
I can't change your
I can't change your mind
I can't change your mind
I can't change your mind
I can't do it
There's a werewolf out on my front lawn
And he's lookin' pissed off
And he's wet from all the rain
I think I'll go say hi
And offer him a beer
