Idlewild Don't Let Me Change lyrics

You won't let me change, you don't let me change
Tell me I can grow up and age will forget that I'm old
You won't let me change, you don't let me change
The story is already told

As tears get mixed up with rain, every time
I mention I mention in vain, how do you expect
To be free when all your politics were
Written in the lipstick that kissed me?

You won't let me change, you don't let me change
Tell me I can grow up and age will forget that I'm old
You won't let me change, you don't let me change
The story is already told


If the world keeps blowing in storm around us all
All the words are frozen as the rain turns into snow fall
So happy I was, to serve blindly on the tray
And honesty isn't poetry, just a truthful way to complain

You won't let me change, you don't let me change
Tell me I can grow up and age will forget that I'm old
You won't let me change, you don't let me change
The story is already told
