when you would       change your mind


baby, I no longer wanna be just the cushion for your pride
here's my badge back, baby, this man's gotta ride away
before you make me change my mind
I'll be gone before you notice that I'm not around
you'll look everywhere, baby, but I just won't be found
better get used to be in my use to be

I used to be the hands of your clock, baby
but I always knew in time
I know not to be the key to your luck (lock ?), baby
and you would change your mind

I used to be the hands of your clock, baby
but I always knew in time
I know not to be the key to your luck, baby
and you would suddenly change your mind

baby, I remember a time when you really used to try
but nowadays, baby, you can't even look me in the eye
your love has drifted with the tide
but I ain't gonna blame you, if you ain't gonna blame me
I'll just move on down, I'm sure that you'll agree
get used to be in my use to be

I ain't gonna blame you, you ain't gonna blame me
I'll just move on down the line, I'm sure that you'll agree
better get used to be in my use to be
