[Verse 1] I wore the dress you used to like The blue one with the narrow waist I even took the longer way To give myself more time to change I had your message in my pocket Three words I’d read a hundred times “Come by tonight” So simple So dangerous So easy to mistake for a sign [Pre-Chorus] I reached your building Touched the door And felt my hand go still Not because I was afraid Because suddenly I wasn’t [Chorus] I changed my mind Right there under your light I thought I came to get you back Turns out I came to say goodnight No scene No tears No grand design I stood one step from yesterday And changed my mind [Verse 2] A taxi slowed beside the curb I almost waved it on Your window glowed above the street The way it always had I pictured you opening the door That look you know too well And for the first time It didn’t pull me forward It only looked familiar [Pre-Chorus] I heard the buzzer Someone laughed upstairs I waited for the ache It came Then passed And left me standing there [Chorus] I changed my mind Right there under your light I thought I came to get you back Turns out I came to say goodnight No scene No tears No grand design I stood one step from yesterday And changed my mind [Bridge] Maybe I loved you Maybe I still do Maybe both can be true Without me walking through that door That’s the part I never knew before [Final Chorus] I changed my mind And nothing broke The street stayed still The city carried on I didn’t need you To see me leave I only needed To believe I could One step back One breath One last look Then I turned around And changed my mind
