I changed the lock on my front door
So you can't see me anymore
And you can't come inside my house
And you can't lie down on my couch
I changed the lock on my front door

I changed the number on my phone 
So you can't call me up at home
And you can't say those things to me 
That make me fall down on my knees
I changed the number on my phone

I changed the kind of car I drive 
So you can't see me when I go by
And you can't chase me up the street
And you can't knock me off o' my feet
I changed the kind of car I drive

I changed the kind of clothes I wear 
So you can't find me anywhere
And you can't spot me in a crowd
And you can't call my name out loud
I changed the kind of clothes I wear

I changed the tracks underneath the train 
So you can't find me again
And you can't trace my path
And you can't hear my laugh
I changed the tracks underneath the train

(Instrumental Break)

I changed the name of this town 
So you can't follow me down
And you can't touch me like before
And you can't make me want you more
I changed the name of this town

I changed the lock on my front door
I changed the number on my phone
I changed the kind o' car I drive
I changed the kind o' clothes I wear
I changed the tracks underneath the train
I changed the name of this town
I changed the name of this town
I changed the name of this town
