People Can Change

[Verse 1]
If you can just forgive me
All the things I said and did
I'll be good at forgetting
How you hurt me way back when

[Pre-Chorus]
Let's not try to make excuses, let's just say hello again
And find some way of letting water back under the bridge

[Chorus]
People can change
From the deepest cuts to the smallest things
People can change
From the color of a shirt to a father's sins
The truth is that I can't go back
Erase the hurt, undo the past
Until their last breath
People can change
Oh

[Verse 2]
It's a lot that we're here talking
But you know we shouldn't stay too long
Just enough to know the difference
To smile and say that we've moved on

[Chorus]
People can change
From the deepest cuts to the smallest things
People can change
From the color of a shirt to a father's sins
The truth is that I can't go back
Erase the hurt, undo the past
Until their last breath
People can change

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, people can change
Ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
And people can change
From the deepest cuts to the smallest things
And people can change
From the color of a shirt to a father's sins
And people can change
From the deepest cuts to the smallest things
Oh, and people can change
From the color of a shirt to a father's sins

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh
People can change
People can change
