Owen Walsh - Change (Set You Free) Lyrics

She left me in the morning while I was sleeping
She didn't even wake me up to say goodbye
So I burned up all the memories that I'd been keeping
And the smoke rose to the sky

But what's the point of crying about a lover
But to lose your voice like a hound that howls at the moon
So I slipped out from underneath my covers
And I was out of bed and it wasn't even noon

So I caught a train that was headed down to Nashville
I hear that's where the lonely guitar players like to live
If I don't make it there I'll move to Asheville
For now I'll give it whatever I got to give

The days are long and sad and strange, but they ain't always gonna be
Though you may have not foreseen the change, it just might set you free

Then I showed up into town and no one knew me
It was harder than I thought it'd be to get myself some gigs
The women here they seem to look right through me
The club owners say come back when you get big

But when every open mic is an open window
Every chord you play could be a cord getting pulled
You start to only sing when you feel sorrow
I'm 21 and now I'm getting old

The days are long and sad and strange, but they ain't always gonna be
Though you may have not foreseen the change, it just might set you free
The days are long and sad and strange, but they ain't always gonna be
Though you may have not foreseen the change, it just might set you free
