I'll Change - Indigo Girls
Written by：Emily Saliers
Looking out across suburban yards
To the construct of our days through
The thinning of the trees
How come I only build a house of cards
That gets blown to pieces
By the fall's first fickle breeze
When I feel that stirring the illicit kiss
That's just the cool tongue of the devil
With a sucker in his midst
One day I'll change you'll be the first one that I call
I owe you an apology too many
Thanks and that's not all
I've been running long before I learned to crawl
My calendar lies crumbled laid to waste
It's been scrawled on thumbed
Through and changed
Will this be the measure of my days
Dinners and appointments and deadlines I can't make
And when I start to feel it making sense for me
That's just hope springing eternally yeah
One day I'll change you'll be the first one that I call
I owe you an apology too many
Thanks and that's not all
I've been running long before I learned to crawl
Outside the summer's gone for good
Dying impatiens stacked up wood
My friend will get together to cook
Talk about what happened take a second look
The master loves the servant who blind heeds him
The husband the obedient wife
The snake will always bite the hand that feeds him
Even if you love him even if you save his life
One day I'll change you'll be the first one that I call
I owe you an apology too many
Thanks and that's not all
I've been running long before
I learned to crawl
