Things That I Can’t Change

I floored my first four by, just to see how fast it'd go

Between you and me, there ought to be a cross beneath that oak

Well, these days I'm less lead foot, and a lot more ready to be

The things that I can't change are changing me

Me and my best buddy loved a girl that liked us both

And that night I shouldn't have left, I threw a ride I can't unthrow

And I found out, a girl you want can't replace a friend you need

The things that I can't change are changing me

I can't turn back time, but there's those times that I look back

At myself in the mirror, wonder, "who the hell is that?"

'Cause I'm a shell of who I was and still ain't who I wanna be

But the things that I can't change are changing me

I don't know how she does it, loving me without believing

Yeah, she gave everything but up when I gave her every reason

And I didn't deserve an angel, but one of mine sent one down to me

Now the things that I can't change are changing me

I can't turn back time, but there's those times that I look back

At myself in the mirror, wonder, "who the hell is that?"

'Cause I'm a shell of who I was and still ain't who I'm gonna be

But the things that I can't change are changing me

Yeah! Oh

I can't turn back time, but there's those times that I look back

At myself in the mirror, wonder, "who the hell is that?"

'Cause I'm a shell of who I was and still ain't who I'm gonna be

But the things that I can't change, all the things that I can't change

Yeah, the things that I can't change are changing me
