Lyrics
She Changes Everything
By Ken McGorry
V I
Baby's on a runway - taking off
Some sunny island where the landing's soft
I don't wanna see her - leave this way
Last night we wrangled in a one-horse sleigh
Now she's flying
Yeah, flying
C 1
She changes everything -- everything I knew about her
She changes everything I know
She changes everything -- I can't seem to breathe without her
She changes everything I know - oh-oh
Whoa-oh
V II
Now I gotta find her - somewhere warm
Where all the natives will see her transform
Into someone new now - that explains
Why this girl needs to be on aeroplanes
When she's flying
'Yeah, flying
C 2
INST = C
VIII
Never on a Sunday - that's for rest
From all the deviations she confessed
When she's flying
Yeah, flying
C 3
She changes everything -- everything I knew about her
She changes everything I know
She changes everything -- I can't seem to breathe without her
She changes everything I know - oh-oh
Whoa-oh
