Rewrite History Songtext
When lookin' young is getting old
And you've become too complicated to hold lovingly
And the lines around your face from laughing at me
Won't be replaced with any kindness that you showed
And he still wants you back
But he wears a wedding ring
So you're creepin' through the shadows
Just to hear a caged bird sing (Ooh)
And you do what you want to
And you do what you can
And you've become too complicated to hold lovingly
And the lines around your face from laughing at me
Won't be replaced with any kindness that you showed
And he still wants you back
But he wears a wedding ring
So you're creepin' through the shadows
Just to hear a caged bird sing (Ooh)
And you do what you want to
And you do what you can
And when it can't be undone
You rewrite history
Over and over and over again
And you might change your face (Ooh)
Just to save your name
You might take her place
But you won't take the blame
It's the same old story in each new catastrophe
Well, you're runnin' and you run out of answers
And you rewrite history (Rewrite history)
Over and over again (—Gain)
And I can't call you up
You say you've got no telephone
And then you write me a letter
And you're a thousand miles from home
You do what you want to
And you do what you can
And when it can't be undone You rewrite history
Over and over and over again
You rewrite history
Over and over and over again
And you might change your face (Ooh)
Just to save your name
You might take her place
But you won't take the blame
It's the same old story in each new catastrophe
Well, you're runnin' and you run out of answers
And you rewrite history (Rewrite history)
Over and over again (—Gain)
And I can't call you up
You say you've got no telephone
And then you write me a letter
And you're a thousand miles from home
You do what you want to
And you do what you can
And when it can't be undone You rewrite history
Over and over and over again
