Are we awake? Am I too old to be this stoned? Was it your breasts from the start? They played a part For goodness sake I wasn't told you'd be this cold Now it's my time to depart and I just had a change of heart I'll quote on the road like a twat and wind my way out of the city Finding a girl who is equally pretty won't be hard Oh, I just had a change of heart You smashed a glass into pieces That's around the time I left When you were coming across as clever Then you lit the wrong end of a cigarette You said I'm full of diseases Your eyes were full of regret And then you took a picture of your salad And put it on the Internet And she said, I've been so worried about you lately You look shit and smell a bit You're mad thinking you could ever save me Not looking like that You used to have a face straight out of a magazine Now you just look like anyone I just had a change of heart I feel as though I was deceived I never found love in the city I just sat in self-pity and cried in the car Oh, I just had a change of heart Then she said, I've been so worried 'bout you lately You were fit but you're losing it You played a part, this is how it starts Oh I just had a change of heart Bom bom bom, bom bom bom I just had a change of heart I just had a change of heart I just had a change of heart I just had a change of heart I just had a change of heart I just had a change of heart I just had a change of heart I just had a change of heart
