Lyrics Candi Staton – Can I Change My Mind

Aw, he didn’t bat an eye
As I packed my bags to leave
I thought he would start to cry
Or sit around my room and grieve

But y’all, the boy, he fooled me this time
He acted like I was the last thing on his mind
I would like to start all over again

Baby, can I change my mind
I just want to 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 want to go

But he didn’t give me no sign
Nothing that would make me change my mind
I would like to just start all over again

Can I change my mind
Please, please, please, baby
I just want to change my mind

I played my games
Many many times before
But peoples, let me tell y’all
Oh, I never reached the door

Ooh, the winds howl tonight
I keep lookin’ back but my baby’s nowhere in sight
I would like to start all over again

Honey, can I change my mind
Please, let me change my mind
…
