Lyrics
If you've made up your mind (words and music by Alan Gillis)
Verse 1
I can't make you stay if you've made up your mind
Better pack up your things
Better leave me behind
I'll get over you though it may take some time
If I can't make you stay - if you've made up your mind
Verse 2
I can't make you stay if you've made up your mind
Are you sure that you know what you're leaving behind
It's breaking my heart
But I'll get over you - sometime
If I can't make you stay - if you've made up your mind
Bridge
I gave you my heart - I believed that
You were the one to make dreams come true
The Prince from my fairy tales
Ride your white horse to rescue me
But that was then - now I see
You need your Crusade - it's your time to move on
No more you and me
No more you and me.
Guitar Solo ½ verse
It's breaking my heart
But I'll get over you - sometime
If I can't make you stay - if you've made up your mind
If I can't make you stay - if you've made up your mind
