Some Things Never Change Lyrics
It's inside of three weeks
And I'm a boat out to sea
With no sails
I tried drinking nights away
It just brought on longer days
And blackouts
Sleep well my dear
I'm waiting for your call
It wont be long
Till were hanging hopes from the stars
Just call
Sleeps been coming hard for me
Because when I dream
It's of you
From the first day I made mistakes
And now I'm trying to pave my way
To your heart
Sleep well my dear
I'm waiting for your call
It wont be long
Till were hanging hopes from the stars
Just give me this
A slow dance
A last chance
To tell you everything you need to hear
Because the phone calls
Won't let me look you in the eyes
So I can tell you
Sweetie
Please stay
And I'm a boat out to sea
With no sails
I tried drinking nights away
It just brought on longer days
And blackouts
It wont be long
Till were hanging hopes from the stars
Just call
Because when I dream
It's of you
From the first day I made mistakes
And now I'm trying to pave my way
To your heart
It wont be long
Till were hanging hopes from the stars
Just give me this
A last chance
To tell you everything you need to hear
Because the phone calls
Won't let me look you in the eyes
So I can tell you
Sweetie
Please stay

this is a really good song and awesome vocals
This song is so beautiful. To me, it's about someone admitting since day one they've made mistakes, but they still want to give it another shot. Just waiting for someone they love to call to confess they were wrong and they want them to stay.
This song is one of the most amazing songs ever created. [my opinion]
This song is about many things that have going with two lovers and their relationship with eachother. They were good at first, knowing that they both made mistakes, but now they broke up. Now, they both relize that they want to be together again. They are both waiting for a call to say that they are sorry and they want another chance. They just want to have a slow dance and look into eachother's eyes just to say "sweetie, please stay."
:]
'Because the phone calls Won't let me look you in the eyes So I can tell you Sweetie Please stay'
So simple, but a superb line! Everybody knows how it is to really want to be with someone, to hold her and to look her in the eye. but all you get are those phone calls. But they won't do.
I guess the song is about a relationship that isn't over yet, but the girl just needs some time to think about what she wants. break up? go on?
They still call eachother on the phone andwish eachother a good night. But he's just waiting for that one call that says 'I want to go on with you' or the other option 'it's over'.
He just wishes he could hold her and look her in the eye and say that he really want's her to be with him.
Anyway, simple song, but so good!
I deffinetley agree with MaximumMax on this one. It's obviously about a relationship that has been disrupted or maybe one that hasn't happened yet but the girl has left and the guy just doesn't want to tell her over the phone that he loves her. Or maybe she's going to leave. Great lyrics and writing on this song.
