Winds of Change

de B.J. Thomas

She wakes me up too early
She keeps me up too late
When she says we'll leave at seven
Then I know we'll leave at eight
There's lipstick on my toothbrush
Laundry on the stairs
No one ever told the girl
That socks were made in pairs
I have tried and tried to tell her
That she's doing it wrong
If she keeps it up
Someday I'll be gone
But packin' up would be a waste of time
'Cause I know she'd change my mind

The car is always dirty
The checkbooks overdrawn
She's got me spending weekends
Planting flowers on the lawn
She says I never call her
When she's sittin' home alone
But everytime I call her
She is talkin' on the phone
She's the only one who cares about the heart of this man
She's the only one who really understands
I could think of ways of leaving her behind
But I know she'd change my mind
Change my mind

But she's all I
All I ever wanted out of life
She's softer than a baby
She's pure as driven snow
The smartest thing I've ever done
Was tell the girl hello
She's a devil and an angel
And everything between
She's more beautiful at thirty
Than she was at seventeen
I come home from work it's late
She's already in bed
So I place that pillow
Underneath my head
And I think I'm gonna get some sleep tonight
But I know she'll change my mind

Change my mind

I know she'll change my mind
Change my mind
