Danny - It Changes lyrics

[Verse 1:] Dear Teresa I hope you get this letter You know I have to send it to an alternate address Because your man'll come across it And probably bug the f** out He'll read about the stuff we used to do when you had snuck out But listen, I'm through with foolish talk and reminiscin' As much as I would like to take it back when we was just friends I just can't, I care about you way too much And for your patience I can't thank you enough, now think about it Ever since I drove you away My sunny days have been so cold and so gray And all the color is gone We really had a love that was strong I didn't mind you probably rode the same school bus my mother was on Age is just another number How I got myself into this situation Makes a brother wonder I let you down and now I'm drowning in my self-pity I hope these words'll help forgive me Please don't leave [Chorus:] Just when you think that you know where you stand You've got the world in your hands Just when you're sure of a dream that you've planned That's when the scenery changes It changes [Verse 2:] How could I ever doubt you? You told me, you WARNED me to take things at face value Conclusions were jumped to I still remember seeing red, cryin' cause you just wouldn't come through I've come to my senses But I sense it's too late You're packing up your suitcase And you're headin' out I swear, I just...oh sh** Hol' up my pen's out of ink.. I'm tired of goodbyes I need more hellos It's funny how a black boy grows And his maturity enhances I think that we deserve a second chance With our personal romance 'Cause I don't know where I stand You said not to put your trust in man But you put your trust in me Baby please don't up and leave Forget my phone, let it ring More than my friend, you're my everything (everything) [Chorus] [Verse 3:] If I could take it back That letter off your windshield, to the time we made a pact And said no matter what would happen Wherever things would take us We wouldn't let (we couldn't let) misunderstanding break us Or miscommunication, I miss the communication I miss seeing you smile and yes, I miss your jubilation I'm in for a rude awakening, if I ever expect Things to get better; forgive me but never forget Next time I'll think twice, before doin' something rash And risk losing everything that I had I thought I learned my lesson after??? left me Any questions that you have Take a second and ask My world changed dramatically In a matter of months It all happened at once I pray you don't stay mad at me I'll always love you, for better or worse I'm forever yours, it hurts To not have you near me Sincerely [Chorus]
