Can I Change My Mind - Delbert McClinton

Aww, she didn’t bat an eye

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 the last thing on her mind

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

Many times before

But peoples, let me tell y’all

Oh, I never reached the door

But 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

Please, please, please, baby

Baby, let me change my mind (fade)
