I Wish I Could Change Your Mind

from The Heart Collector by Adam Levy

/

lyrics

I can't change the course of a wandering stream
I can't tell the stars not to shine
I can't stop the world from spinning around
But I wish I could change your mind

I can't stop the swallows returning in springtime
Or the train on the Wichita line
I can't stop the lightning from striking the ground
But I wish I could change your mind

Once upon a time, you said you would be mine
As long as the sky hung above
It's still there just the same
So, darling, please explain
What has become of our love

I can't the church bells from chiming on Sunday
I can't change the water to water to wine
And, no, I can't stop these teardrops that fall from my eyes
But I wish I could change your mind
And I can't stop these teardrops that fall from my eyes
But I wish I could change your mind
