City by a River

                                  Here we are

But it's not the same

Why do I always learn

The hardest way?



I bet my heart

In a losing game

A hungry man makes

An easy prey



And now I'm payin'

For the fool I've been

But that's one mistake

That's never gonna happen again



Cause every day you're gone

Another night returns

And I have to face myself

I had to live and learn

I'm gonna mend this heart

I'm not ashamed to say

I think it's time for me

To make some changes

Changes



I played around

Pushed you to far

Pulled at all the strings

Till we came apart



But walls break down

When the truth gets hard

And there's no hiding

From the pain I caused



But hold on woman

Don't go now

I'm gonna get myself together

And make it up some how



Cause every day you're gone

Another night returns

And I have to face myself

I had to live and learn

I'm gonna mend this heart

I'm not ashamed to say

I think it's time for me

To make some changes

Changes



How can I convince you baby?

I'd do anything to change your mind

So hold on woman don't go now

I'm gonna get myself together

And make it up to you somehow



Cause every day you're gone

Another night returns

And I have to face myself

I had to live and learn

I'm gonna mend this heart

I'm not ashamed to say

I think it's time for me

To make some changes

Changes
