"Change" Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)

Someday when I'm over you and when I think I'm able to
Well, I might try to be your friend again
Your restless heart and rovin' eyes, my jealousy, these endless fights
I've got to get out of your life or I will never mend.

I guess I'll die a bit each day but I'm always dying anyway
And I don't have the heart to stay and I can't take the pain
I know we've tried to no avail, our heaven now has turned to hell
The same old hurt we know so well and something's got to change.

We both know it's got to end, the passion's gone it's just pretend
And one of us has got to make the move
We might as well just give it up, we've lost respect and there's no trust
And without this there's no real love it's just some sad excuse.

I guess I'll die a bit each day but I'm always dying anyway
And there's nothing left but walk away, ain't this a crying shame
A change of pace, a change of heart, a change of place, a place to start
And we'll be better off apart, our only chance is change.

And we never will but something has to change.

Someday when I'm over you and when I think I'm able to
Then I will try to be your friend again
But I don't want to see your face 'til then
Change, I need a change
I need a change
We need a change...
