Oh, I am what I am, and a man is what he drinks
Though I'm always trying to be the kind of man
Who's full of all the things that you wish you saw in me
Like that blond headed boy, always busy dreaming
But we're not kids anymore, playing in the rain
Something was bound to change

[Chorus]
Is there nothing I can do
To let me hold you in my arms anymore
Ain't there something you can say
That'll make me change my ways

Now change is in the mind, a sort of solitary space
Where it's just me, myself and I in a heated debate
Discussing pros and cons and we're sorting rights from wrongs
You know, this is my decision to be made
Oh, we're not kids anymore, hiding from the rain
I guess that it's time we part ways

[Chorus]
Is there nothing I can do
To let me hold you in my arms anymore
Ain't there something you can say
That'll make me change my ways
Is there nothing I can do
To let me hold you in my arms anymore
Ain't there something you can say
That'll make me change my ways

The only promise I can make
Is that I won't make a promise I could break, oh
I want so badly to be yours
Well, all you need to do for me
Is only make a promise you can keep
I want so badly to be yours

Ba, ba, da, da, da, ba, ba, ba
Ba, ba, da, da, da, ba, ba, ba
Ba, ba, da, da, da, ba, ba, ba

[Chorus]
Is there nothing I can do
To let me hold you in my arms anymore
Ain't there something you can say
That'll make me change my ways
That'll make me change my ways
That'll make me change my ways
