I Can't Change - Rhett Miller

I loved you but I left you back in Knoxville

It was easy, I just walked on out the door

Sleepin' was the one time it was peaceful

And I could not take the talking anymore

Cigarettes and secrets in the morning

Coffee’s awful strong this far down South

Sometimes it was easier to kiss you

Than to hear the truth that came out of your mouth

I thought you was gonna stay the same

And love me even though I’m strange

I told you when you took my name

I ain’t never gonna change

I ain’t never gonna change

Loved you when I met you back in high school

Laughed at every stupid joke I made

Lately I’ve been livin' in a barroom

I thought I might’ve died if I’d’ve stayed

I thought you was gonna be my girl

And we would never be estranged

But we are all alone in this world

I ain’t never gonna change

I ain’t never gonna change

I thought you was gonna stay the same

And love me even though I’m strange

I told you when you took my name

I ain’t never gonna change

No I ain’t never gonna change

No I ain’t never gonna change
