I used to go out midnight creepin’
Through every low-down joint in town
You know the company I was keepin’
Never let me settle down
Then in a feat of prestidigitation
you appeared on my screen
I took the time to reassess the situation
And now I’m coming clean
Yea, yes I am

I’m gonna change for you, baby
Show you a brand new me
I’m gonna change for you, baby
Be the man that you want me to be

I used to love an all night hustle
Gettin’ over any way I could
You know I could deliver the muscle, baby
And at the time, well it sure felt good
I let my guard down just for one minute
And you slipped in

Now I changed my mind
I’m walking on a straight line
got to take my monkey 'bidness
Just leave it all behind

I wanna change for you, baby
Show you a brand new me
I’m gonna change for you, baby
Be the man that you want me to be
Yea yea yea

I’m not talking about
Changing temporarily no
Don’t misunderstand me now, baby
It’s just a leap of faith
I'm making permanently

(change change change)
I’ve got to change change change
(change change change)
(change change change)
I’ve got to change change change
I said I wanna change for you, baby
It’s alright
(change change change)
