Week of Lyrics, Day 5: The Killers "Change Your Mind"

Before getting married, I went through the bittersweet experience of dating. I must admit...I don't miss it! It is a time of excitement and heartache, but worst of all, uncertainty. There were a few times where I put myself out there and got "nicely" shot down. The song, "Change Your Mind" by the Killers, always gave me a pick me up. The line "If the answer is no, can I change your mind?" rung true to my ears. It helped me feel like I still had a chance when I clearly didn't.

The Killers - Hot Fuss - Change Your Mind

Racey days
Help me through the hopeless haze
But my oh my
Tragic eyes
I can't even recognise myself behind
So if the answer is no
Can I change your mind

Out again, a siren screams at half past ten
And you won't let go
While I ignore, that we both felt like this
Before it starts to show
So if I had a chance
Would you let me know

Why aren't you shaking
Step back in time
Graciously taking
Oh your too kind

And if the answer is no
Can I change your mind

We're all the same
And love is blind
The sun is gone
Before it shines

And I said if the answer is no
Can I change your mind

I don't have itunes so I couldn't listen to it. I like the lyrics though & will have to do a search to listen to the song.
