Same Changes

Arms around my body,
Kisses on my skin
I walk away,
I walk away,
But he lingers
Maybe it should matter,
More to be myself,
I walk away,
I walk away,
But he lingers
And everyone says,
"This love will change you,"
Well I ask,
"Does anything every stay the same?"
No, no, no,
Just same changes
Oohh (changes, the same)
Oohh (changes, the same)
In the magic hour,
Lantern petals glow,
I walk away,
I walk away,
But you linger
Light as any flower,
You don't even know,
You pick me up,
You pick me up,
With two fingers
And everyone says,
"This love will change you,"
But I ask,
"Does anything ever stay the same?"
No, no, no,
Just same changes
Oohh (changes, the same)
Oohh (changes, the same)
Every day I want to freeze frame
Scramble in my sleep to keep this fragile flame,
From the wind, from the driving rain,
As soon as it begins, it begins to change
It's strange changes
Oohh (changes, the same)
Oohh (changes, the same)
Careful and with patience,
Hold this tender heart,
Weave a well of tiny threads
With two fingers
Standing in the garden,
Gathering the dusk,
We hold the sun and golden one,
And we linger
And everyone says,
"This love will change you,"
Well I ask,
"Isn't that we're all supposed to do?"
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
It's same changes
Oohh (changes, the same)
Oohh (changes, the same)
Oohh (changes, the same)
Oohh (changes, the same)
