Lyrics
Why does everybody change
You turn around and find that life has changed again
It moves so fast, but it's subtle slow
You turn around and find
You don't know where you've been
Or which way to go.
Seasons pass and people change
And some thing's stayed the same
My hopes, my dreams,
In fact I feel them stronger than before.
Moving slowly across the floor
Reminding me of how I used to dance before
I laugh aloud, inside I sigh,
It's not for death I fear but
What may lay beyond the other side.
Seasons pass and people change
But some things stayed the same
My hopes, my dreams,
In fact I feel them stronger than before.
And the clock keeps ticking
Yes, I think Ive seen this all before
And there's that open door
My hopes, my dreams, in fact I feel it stronger...
Everybody has to change
The world will turn no matter how still I remain
It feels so fast, but it's subtle slow
And the clock keeps ticking
