Reconsider Me Lyrics
If you're all alone
And you need someone
Call me up
And I'll come running
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
If it's still the past
That makes you doubt
Darlin', that was then
And this is now
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
And I'll never make you sad again
'Cause I swear that I've changed since then
And I promise that I'll never make you cry
Let's let bygones
Be forgotten
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
You can go and be
What you want to be
And it'll be alright
If we disagree
I'm the ones who cares
And I hope you'll see
That I'm the one who loves you
Reconsider me
Let's let bygones
Be forgotten
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
And I'll never make you sad again
'Cause I swear that I've changed since then
And I'll never make you sorry if you'll try
And I'll never make you sad again
'Cause I swear that I've changed since then
And I promise that I'll never make you cry
And you need someone
Call me up
And I'll come running
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
That makes you doubt
Darlin', that was then
And this is now
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
'Cause I swear that I've changed since then
And I promise that I'll never make you cry
Be forgotten
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
What you want to be
And it'll be alright
If we disagree
I'm the ones who cares
And I hope you'll see
That I'm the one who loves you
Reconsider me
Be forgotten
Reconsider me
Reconsider me
'Cause I swear that I've changed since then
And I'll never make you sorry if you'll try
And I'll never make you sad again
'Cause I swear that I've changed since then
And I promise that I'll never make you cry
leave it to Warren Zevon to write a pop song that retains the sort of life weary, "i've messed up" feeling he has copywrighted as his own. there's desperate loneliness behind the sincerity of a manly protectiveness. its a "Lean on Me" for the rest of us, equally toned with regret and hopefulness.
Wonderful song, though I'm not sure I'd agree that it is a "pop" song. It's very complex and multi-layered. It may have been a popular rock/blues song, but I don't think I'd tag it a pop song.
