If Love Doesn't Change You

from Big Time Baby by Lesley Barth

/

lyrics

A little bit older, but wiser the same.
A little bit sadder, but I’ve just me to blame.
I broke what I had for the allure of the thrill.
If love doesn’t change you, then loneliness will.

A glass of your strongest, no matter the taste.
Here’s to one I loved longest and let go to waste.
If only we watered the things we wanted to grow.
If love doesn’t change you, then love you don’t know.

How warm was his laughter. How bright was his smile.
In the darkness of after, you could see it for miles.
Now I’ve just got a memory of a man that was good.
If love doesn’t change you, well, maybe it should.

A little bit older, but wiser the same.
A little bit sadder, but ain’t that part of the game?
We break what we have for we know not how to build.
I don’t know if love’s changed me.
I don’t know if love’s changed me.
I don’t know if love’s changed me - but I pray that it will.
