Shannon & The Clams
The Boy
[Verse 1]
When I was a boy, I learned not to cry
My daddy would scream, I learned how to hide
That fool cut off all of this ribbon of mine
Leading me back, before it unwinds

[Chorus]
If you ever change your mind
If you ever change your mind

[Verse 2]
I learned how to do better each time
I buried this heart and years went on by
But what do you do when there's nothing inside?
Lost in the dirt, covered in vines

[Chorus]
If you ever change your mind
If you ever change your mind
Touch me and then teach me how to cry
If you ever change your mind

[Bridge]
This bone will break along a line
One that's been drawn for a long time
Time, time
[Chorus]
If you ever change your mind
If you ever change your mind
Touch me and then teach me how to cry
If you ever change your mind
