Change Her Mind

by Jane's Party

about

Being in a long-term relationship in your mid 20’s, the thought of breaking up and starting over can sometimes be the backdrop to every argument. “Change Her Mind” is about working through a relationship over holding on to past ones or holding out for something better.
Going back to it now, the thing I like most about it is this place of naive youth it approaches this topic from. In the recording process, we wanted to make sure to capture this feeling not just in the lyrics, but in the musical and instrumental delivery as well, so the guitars were recorded on a cheap, slightly out of tune Squier guitar, while the crowd of backup vocals sound like all your best buds at your university house party.

lyrics

Sometimes I'm helpless

Sometimes that's all I can say

And still it feels like

I'm a million miles away

Can you hear me?



Sometimes I worry

Most times that's all I can do

And still you know that

I will wait around for you

To feel better


And all you ever say is


Oh my love, wish that things could be clearer

It's like we grew up too fast

Dreams grew dim through the years


And she's been holding out for something better

Holding on to what she's left behind

I never had the heart to tell her

Just holding out for time to change her mind



Sometimes I'm honest

Most times that's all I can be

And you get so silly

Like some drama on TV

And you know it


And all you ever say is


Oh my love, wish that things could be clearer

It's like we grew up too fast

Dreams grew dim through the years


And she's been holding out for something better

Holding on to what she's left behind

I never had the heart to tell her

Just holding out for time to change her mind


And she's been holding out for something better

Holding on to what she's left behind

I never had the heart to tell her

Just holding out for time to change her mind


Woo - oo - hoo - hoo!


And she's been holding out for something better

Holding on to what she's left behind

I never had the heart to tell her

Oh I need some time to change her mind
