Before You Change Your Mind

Johnny Hallyday · Rough Town [1994]

(Daryl Burgess)



Well you change your mind like you change your dress and

I'm feeling fine but I must confess, I'm like a feather on the wind

And I'm not the same since you blew in



I've been trying hard to catch you, tried, I tried, I tried

It's like flagging down a hurricane and asking for a ride

You better hurry up make love to me, before you change your mind



Well I can't go back even if I could

With every kiss I gotta knock on wook

Tied to your wagon it's a bumpy ride

Baby I love you but I don't know why



I've been trying hard to catch you, tried, I tried, I tried

Like a cat on wheels hanging on with all my might

You better hurry up make love to me, before you change your mind



I've been staying up late waiting for your call

Well I'd run to you in no time at all

Can't nail you down, is these something wrong ?

Well I rush right in but you're already gone



I've been trying hard to cath you, tried, I tried, I tried

Won't you treat me like you used to do before you say goodnight

Hurry up make love to me, before you change your mind.
