[Verse 1] We don’t talk like we used to Just little words here and there TV light in the quiet Like we’re both pretending to care You say you’re just tired lately I say I’ve had a long week too But there’s something in the silence That’s telling me I’m losing you [Pre-Chorus] I keep thinking maybe it’s nothing Just a season we’re going through But the way you don’t look at me anymore Feels like I already knew [Chorus] If I could change your mind I’d go back to the moment it started slipping away If I could change your mind I’d find the words I never thought to say I wouldn’t let the distance grow Between what we feel and what we show If I could change your mind I wouldn’t let you go [Verse 2] There was a time we’d stay up talking Till the morning pulled us in Now we pass each other gently Like strangers who once were friends And I don’t know who was first to stop trying Or if it even matters now But I feel it in the way you’re fading While I’m still hanging around [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I waited too long to notice Maybe I never really knew How love can slip out the back door slow Without making a sound or two [Chorus] If I could change your mind I’d go back to the moment it started slipping away If I could change your mind I’d find the words I never thought to say I wouldn’t let the distance grow Between what we feel and what we show If I could change your mind I wouldn’t let you go [Guitar Solo] [Melodic electric guitar solo with sustained bends and vocal-like phrasing, supported by warm Hammond organ pads and steady mid-tempo AOR groove, building emotional tension and reflection before the final section] [Bridge] I don’t need forever promises I just need one honest night Where we say what we mean without turning away And stop pretending we’re alright [Final Chorus] If I could change your mind I’d go back to the moment it started slipping away If I could change your mind I’d find the words I never thought to say I wouldn’t let the distance grow Between what we feel and what we show If I could change your mind I wouldn’t let you go
