I prefer to spend my time in solitary ways   Keeping myself to myself   Can't pretend that it's been easy since you went away   Living with somebody else      If you should change your mind   If you should turn around and look behind   If you could see me the way I used to be   At the risk of bringing back the sorrow and despair   I would do it all again   Holding on to memories and pretending not to care   Knowing that the show was soon to end      If only I could change your mind   If only you would change   If I had the chance I'd do it all again   I would do it all again      I remember windy shores on menancholy days   Drifting along with the tide   And the joy of simple things and ordinary ways   Taking it all in my stride      If you should change your mind   If I could let you see what lies behind   If you could see need me the way it used to be      Even for the moment of the happy times we shared   Living in my dreams since then   At the risk of losing only castles in the air   Come with me and we can try again   Oh, if I could change your mind      Can't pretend it's been lonely since you went away   Oh, if I could change your mind
