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. |
