If You Change Your Mind

That's all it was then: a fling, and now we're through.
I had a good time. You say that you did too.
And even though we're not getting younger
You shouldn't settle for the first warm body you find...
...but I won't be back if you change your mind.

I guess I misjudged what you were in this for.
The way you kissed me, I thought you wanted more.
The way we'd talk in bed for hours each morning
The way you curled into my arms as the day declined...
...but I won't be back if you change your mind.

I've been around the block
And given better than I got
Could be my bill has just come due
Relax, I'm not a child:
I won't make scenes or drink and dial
I'm not pretending: I grant that this hurts
But I've been through worse
And I'll get through this too

The wind is howling; the snow shoots up like spray
I've lit a fire and uncorked a cabernet
The Sunday paper's on the couch beside me
Where a week ago our bodies lay entwined...
...but you can't come back if you change your mind.
You can't have me back if you change your mind.
So don't waste your breath if you change your mind.
