Change Is a 'Comin
Lyrics:
If its all the same to you, I must be moving on
You tried to buy my time with the pictures of your prime
They say time will heal you if its healing that you want
But time is really space so you forget that you are lost
Change Is a 'Comin
Time Is a ' Goin
We only own
(The now)
They say time will tell the world, the secrets that you kept
They tried to read out lies as though the truth were badly spelt
History is the future and we've seen it all before
(But) There must be another end, on that we must depend
Change Is a 'Comin
Time Is a 'Goin
We only own
(The now)
Someday we will look around the ground we're walking on
We will see the face of the Father and the Son
People will have jewels and their houses would be thrones
(And) Time will be forgotten, telling secrets to the stones
Change Is a 'Comin
Time Is a 'Goin
We only own
The now
This
song is very dear to me. I wrote it at a time when I was particularly
low. I knew who and what I wanted to be but I was so uncertain about
what to do and how to get there. I was bogged down by some of the
mistakes I'd made. But then I got a spark about doing the best with the
present and not wasting the 'now' on the 'then'. And thats what makes
this song special to me...it serves as a reminder to move on.
