NANCI GRIFFITH
"I Would Change My Life"
(Robert Earl Keen Jr)

You never liked this place where we'd
Been living all along
So, you packed up your things and
Bought a one-way ticket home
Leaving never hurt as much as
Being left behind

[Chorus:]
I would change my life
I would make it right
I would change my life
If you would only change your mind

I have spent my hours on some
Misbegotten dream
I have spent my money on some
Foolish hearted things
I have spent my memories on old
Embittered wine

[Chorus]

I wish that I could find the words
To make you come back home
I wish that I could say the things you
Needed for so long
I wish that you could see me
Now... maybe then you'd find

[Chorus]
