Changes
I feel unhappy
I feel so sad
I’ve lost the best friend
That I ever had
She was my woman
I loved her so
But it's too late now
I've let her go
I'm going through changes
I'm going through changes
We shared the years
We shared each day
In love together
We found a way
But soon the world
Had its evil way
My heart was blinded
Love went astray
I'm going through changes
I'm going through changes
It took so long
To realize
And I can still hear
Her last goodbyes
Now all my days
Are filled with tears
Wish I could go back
And change these years
I'm going through changes
I'm going through changesI got a friend at the bar,
his name is Ray
And I really don't know,
what he's trying to say
His skin is black,
mine is white
To me there's no difference,
wrong or right
Told me he leave,
the girl at the curb
Told me never to speak an unkind word
My brother's got rhythm,
I got the blues but
Babe we love to live the life that we choose
But now I know what they was trying to say
I gotta change my life,
change my ways
Now I know what they were trying to say
I gotta change my life,
change my ways
Now when the night comes babe,
you know I'll be found
I'll be playing the blues on every stage in town
And there's a song to be played,
and there's a song to be sung
'Cause there's a little lovin' boy,
in everyoneI feel unhappy
I am so sad
I lost the best friend
That I've ever had
She is my baby
I love her so
But it's to late now
I've let her go
We're going through changes (ohh - [chorus])
We're going through changes (ahh - [chorus])
We've shared the years
We've shared each day
I love you daddy
But I found my way
You know the world
Is an evil place
My baby is grown now
She's found her way
(ohh ahh - [Chorus])
We're going through changes (ohh - [chorus])
We're going through changes (ohh - [chorus])
(ahh - [Chorus])
It took so long
To realize
I can still hear
His last goodbyes
Now all my days
I'm filled in fears
Wish I could go back
And change the years
We're going through changes
We're going through changes (changes - [Chorus])
We're going through... Changes
Changes
Changes
Changes...Let faith be my shield, and let joy be my steed
'gainst the dragons of anger, the ogres of greed
and let me set free with the sword of my youth
from the castle of darkness, the power of the truth
I've struggled as a man to figure out this life
what I'm doing with the time that i've been given
I search to find the reasons for the wrong and for the right
and it's clear the status quo
is the first thing that must go
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
I struggled as a boy to work out wrong from right
feet of clay by day
man of steel by night
I wished for some great teacher that would guide me to the light
but tha voice inside me said
there's no quick and easy way
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
Leaders seeking power are spoiling for a fight
my learned friends are sure who should be chosen
each day teh papers tell me who is wrong and who is right
but between the lines I find
no reason in the rhyme
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
There is nothing out of reach in this world
the story told for many years can no longer serve us well
there is nothing out of reach in this world
it's in our hands
in our hands
Far away the spirit guides me
speaks in tongues I understand
far away the spirit calls to me
a message for the common man
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
Gonna be some changes
gonna be some sorrows
we badly need them
to make it through tomorrow
Let faith be my shield, and let joy be my steed
'gainst the dragons of anger, the ogres of greed
and let me set free with the sword of my youth
from the castle of darkness, the power of the truth
