Autumn leaves are trading colors The hills are starting to glow The summer grass is brown and yellow and gold Cinnamon gold
And I wish I could change I wish I could change I wish I could change my mind, oh But I still feel the shame I still feel the pain I’m praying to leave, leave the past behind
The schoolyard crows with laughter And kids with innocent eyes Bows and arrows (?), cops and robbers and gangs Time to change sides
And I wish I could change I wish I could change I wish I could change my mind, oh But I still feel the shame I still feel the shame I’m praying to leave, leave the past behind
Oh You’ve been holding on to the bitter burning Oh Forgive yourself and let the seasons turn
And I wish I could change I wish I could change I wish I could change my mind, oh But I still feel the same I still feel the shame I’m praying to leave, leave the past behind
