Marvin Gaye - Change What You Can lyrics

The girl I love locked out on me Leaving her love flowing strong My heart would like to carry on But she said her feeling for me was gone I tried to find the words to say to make her stay But she said she couldn't stand it for another day So the only thing that's left for me to say Change what you can But what you can't leave it alone Have the sense to know the difference between the two I know the girl is on her way Taking the love I need so bad All the love I guess I never had So what's the use of sitting around and feeling sad I must respect the fact that she won't be back my way 'Sause she said she can't stand it for another day So the only thing that's left for me to say change what you can But what you can't leave it alone Have the sense to know the difference between the two I sit around a misery Over a love that belonged to me Everything I could do to make her stay But she said she couldn't stand it for another day So the only thing that's left for me to say You got to change it baby
