I Can't Change the World Lyrics

A bomb goes off in a far-off city

A siren wails right here at home
Sometimes life ain't all that pretty

When you're watching it all alone

You build a wall around your feelings

Just another heart afraid to break

And you don't wanna let me in

'Cause really, what difference can I make

I can't change the world

Baby, that's for sure

But if you let me girl

I can change yours

I bet I can change yours

So let Jesus look down on this madness

And let the powers that be just fuss and fight
'Cause everyone needs to pick their battles

And me I realize

That I can't change the world

Baby, that's for sure

But if you let me, girl

I can change yours

I bet I can change yours

And every time you light a flame

You just get burned
And you feel like it's all in vain

You feel like you need to learn

That no one's gonna save you

No, no one's gonna save you

But I'm standin' here

My heart's on my sleeve

Never gonna let you down

Never ever gonna leave you

Baby, that's for sure

Whoa, I can't change the world

But I can change yours

I bet I can change yours
