Was it all just pretend back then when
You said you loved me for me?
'Cause lately it seems the girl of your dreams
Is someone that I can't be
Oh, but I try
And, oh, I cry
You want me to change
See things your way
It's easy to see, I'm losing me
One little piece at a time
Oh baby, I've tried
But this is my life
Boy, you want me to change
Yeah, baby, I'll change, my mind
Well, I used to believe you knew better than me
But now I'm the one in control
And I might make mistakes but I'll make 'em my way
I won't pay with a piece of my soul
Well, you made it clear
I had to decide
You want me to change
See things your way
It's easy to see, I'm losing me
One little piece at a time
Oh baby, I've tried
But this is my life
Oh, you want me to change
Yeah, baby, I'll change, my mind
So sad
Don't get my wrong, baby, we're still through
Now the only thing left for you to change is you
Boy, you want me to change
See things your way
It's easy to see, I'm losing me
One little piece at a time
Oh baby, I've tried
But this is my life
Boy, you want me to change
Yeah, baby, I'll change, my mind
My mind
Oh, oh
