Marvin Gaye - Change What You Can lyrics
[Marvin Gaye - Change What You Can lyrics]
Ooh, the girl I love walked out on me
Leaving her love flowing strong
Oh, my heart would like to carry on
But she said her feeling for me was gone
I tried to find the words to
Say to make her stay
But she said she couldn't stand
It for another day
So the only thing that's left for me to say
Oh, change what you can
But when you can't leave it alone
Have the sense to know the
Difference between the two
I know the girl is on her way
Taking the love I need so bad
Oh, the love I guessed I'd never have
So what's the use of sitting
Around and feeling sad
I must respect the fact she
Won't be back my way
Cause she said she couldn't stand
It for another day
So the only thing that's left for me to say
Oh, change what you can
But when you can't leave it alone
Have the sense to know the
Difference between the two
I sit around in misery
Over a love that don't belong to me
I did everything I could to make her stay
But she said she couldn't stand
It for another day
So the only thing that's left for me to say
Oh, change it, baby
Oh, change if you want to
You got to change, alright
Oh, change it, honey
Honey, you can change it
Leaving her love flowing strong
Oh, my heart would like to carry on
But she said her feeling for me was gone
I tried to find the words to
Say to make her stay
But she said she couldn't stand
It for another day
So the only thing that's left for me to say
Oh, change what you can
But when you can't leave it alone
Have the sense to know the
Difference between the two
I know the girl is on her way
Taking the love I need so bad
Oh, the love I guessed I'd never have
So what's the use of sitting
Around and feeling sad
I must respect the fact she
Won't be back my way
Cause she said she couldn't stand
It for another day
So the only thing that's left for me to say
Oh, change what you can
But when you can't leave it alone
Have the sense to know the
Difference between the two
I sit around in misery
Over a love that don't belong to me
I did everything I could to make her stay
But she said she couldn't stand
It for another day
So the only thing that's left for me to say
Oh, change it, baby
Oh, change if you want to
You got to change, alright
Oh, change it, honey
Honey, you can change it
