Hey, what the hell do you want me to do? Hey, does it look like I'm static to you? You might look twice, 'cause I'm moving Ok, you see that I can walk which is good But still you're trying to make me talk like you would Your intention's nice, you're improving For all you know, you are doing fine But I guess it shows That even jewellery that's fake do shine So shut your mouth now big boy I'm just myself not your toy It's in my nature to be changing Now is it so hard to see? You cannot make me to be Someone who never will be changing So what the hell do you want me to say? Another halting rhyme, another cliche? Well, you might be right, for this one time You take for granted, I'm your servant subdued It doesn't make sense to me but to you So here's one last bright make shift rhyme For all you know I'm just a fool But I guess that shows You can't judge a dog just by it's drool So shut your mouth now big boy I'm just myself not your toy It's in my nature to be changing Now is it so hard to see? You cannot make me to be Someone who never will be changing I'm losing you, for a big smile on my face You're nothing new, not hard to replace I'm losing you, but I'm not losing ground So Peekaboo! And you won't be around You won't be around You won't be around So shut your mouth now big boy I'm just myself not your toy It's in my nature to be changing Now is it so hard to see? You cannot make me to be Someone who never will be changing 'Cause I change with time And that's not a crime Someone like you cannot derange me I change with time That's not a crime It's in my nature to be changing Changing

Cold air, Christmas day, 1997 Pretty in her pigtails, holding up a present Me in the metal with my front teeth missing Rudolph on the TV, grandma in the kitchen July '85 black Chevrolet Sunset setting on a Lake County lake Ten pounds on the dot written on the back Uncle Terry's smiling big, holding up a bat Still hangs in a frame beside the front door Crazy to think he ain't here no more One day we're barefoot, young, and alive The next we're a story in a three by five Somebody sure glad to have 'Cause time makes it hard to remember So take every snapshot while you can Tell them that you love 'em while you got the chance Make sure that you take it in 'Cause one day all you gonna have with them Is a picture, yeah Bonfire party in the middle of nowhere Might just look like buddies and some cold beer But when it's my time to leave It's all someone will have left on me One day we're barefoot, young, and alive The next we're a story in a three by five Somebody sure glad to have 'Cause time makes it hard to remember So take every snapshot while you can And tell them that you love 'em while you got the chance Make sure that you take it in 'Cause one day all you gonna have with them Is a picture, yeah, oh-oh, yeah If you think this is one of those memories That you wanna leave behind Put your arm around who you love And thank one tonight, tonight, 'cause One day we're barefoot, young, and alive The next we're a story in a three by five Somebody sure glad to have 'Cause time makes it hard to remember So take every snapshot while you can And tell them that you love 'em while you got the chance Make sure that you take it in 'Cause one day all you gonna have with them Is a picture, yeah, oh-oh, yeah Make sure that you take it in 'Cause one day all you gonna have with them Is a picture

I hear you just got married Took a month long honeymoon And you were all smiles at the wedding You cried when you kissed the groom I got no invitation I guess the mail man didn't bring it to me But I see the whole thing in slow motion Every night as I try to sleep My buddy John said you looked real pretty And you acted like you were in love He said the preacher asked for objections And he thought about standing up I told John he must have been crazy 'Cause you were just about to say "I do" He Just gave me a wink and said all he could think Is it could've been me with you It could've been me Standing there with you Could've been me And my dreams coming true But those dreams move on if you wait too long It took me to now to see, it could've been me I don't guess I ever told you That I went out and bought you a ring I even carried it around in my pocket Waiting to say the right thing I pulled it out the other day But the diamond had lost it's shine Well I know how it feels 'cause my eyes grow dim When I think you could've been mine It could've been me Standing there with you Could've been me My dreams comin' true But those dreams move on if you wait too long It took me to now to see, it could've been me I know I called just in time Bit too late You know dreams move on If you wait too long It took me to now to see that It could've been me Standing there with you It could've been me And my dreams coming true But those dreams move on if you wait too long It took me to now to see, it could've been me (Could've been me) Could've been me (Could've been me) Could've been me (Could've been me) Could've been me

Most nights I can keep it buried in the back of my head On most nights I can have a couple drinks, I can take of the edge And then I don't have to think about, try not to think about you That's what I do on most nights, but tonight I'm gonna miss you, I let it hit me I'm gonna sit here and wish you were with me I'm gonna let that goodbye hurt me I wanna feel it, no mercy I reminisce you, I'm gonna go there I know I shouldn't, but right now I don't care 'Stead of spendin' my night losin' the fight, tryin' to forget you Baby I, I'm gonna miss you Most nights I try to stay away from any memory From this nights when you were still sleepin', dreamin' next to me But I'm 'bout to put on continue and slow dance in this burnin' room I'm gonna miss you, I let it hit me I'm gonna sit here and wish you were with me I'm gonna let that goodbye hurt me I wanna feel it, no mercy I reminisce you, I'm gonna go there I know I shouldn't, but right now I don't care 'Stead of spendin' my night losin' the fight, tryin' to forget you Baby I, I'm gonna miss you I'm gonna thing about Charleston, weekend Airbnb And that Carolina heat had nothin' on you and me I'm gonna think about that first kiss in the rain, it was June Remember how we said forever? I'm gonna think about that too I'm gonna miss you, I let it hit me I'm gonna sit here and wish you were with me I'm gonna let that goodbye hurt me I wanna feel it, no mercy I reminisce you, I'm gonna go there I know I shouldn't, but right now I don't care 'Stead of spendin' my night losin' the fight, tryin' to forget you Baby I, I'm gonna miss you I'm gonna miss you

Sometimes it feels just like you're so far away Don't take the time to say the things we use to say I can't remember the last time together Lost in each others eyes It just ain't right Come on baby let's leave tonight I just wanna run, I just wanna run away with you And live wide open Set 'em on fire crazy like we use to do Don't matter where we're going Up on a mountain, down by the beach side Til we find the love that we fell into I just wanna run, I just wanna run away with you I just wanna run away with you I miss your midnight kiss Loving you all night long But this life's like a rip tide And we're barely hanging on Caught up in the worry and always in a hurry And losing what we're all about Slow it down Take our love and get outta this town I just wanna run, I just wanna run away with you And live wide open Set 'em on fire crazy like we use to do Don't matter where we're going Up on a mountain, down by the beach side Til we find the love that we fell into I just wanna run, I just wanna run away with you I just wanna run away with you Wanna lay you down Hear nothing but the sound Of my name on your lips We can let it all go Pull real close Find that place again I just wanna run, I just wanna run away with you And live wide open Set 'em on fire crazy like we use to do Don't matter where we're going Up on a mountain, down by the beach side Til we find the love that we fell into I just wanna run, I just wanna run away with you I just wanna run away with you I just wanna run away with you I just wanna run away with you
