You can carry my heart with you or you can drop it like a stone But please let that decision be your own I know people gonna talk the way they do sometimes but don't let them change your mind I can wait around forever, if it has to be that long, just as long as it's you I'm waiting on. I know people gonna talk, the way they do sometimes, but don't let them change your mind. (instrumental) (Chorus) I know people gonna talk, the way they do sometimes, but don't let them change your mind. They can tell you that its over, and I'd better step aside, but nobody but you can decide. I know people gonna talk the way they do sometimes but don't let them change your mind no, no, no, no don't let them change your mind
