Another Rick Paul co-write. About a girl I knew named Sally Green.

Sally had an idea
It happened late last night
The more she thinks about it
The more she’s sure she’s right

Sally’s never been a girl
To obsess on an idea
But she says she has never
Seen things quite this clear

Chorus:
Nobody ever changes
For somebody else
The important changes in your life
You have to make for yourself

Sally used to talk a lot
She used to yell and scream
But threats fall on a deaf man’s ears
If he knows you’ll never leave

Now Sally doesn’t talk too much
No she don’t say a thing
She keeps one eye on the door
And one eye on her dreams

Chorus:
Nobody ever changes
For somebody else
The important changes in your life
You have to make for yourself
