Changes Lyrics
I feel unhappy, I feel so sad,
I 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 changes
I 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
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
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

Sounds like a breakup..
I love this song with each listen. As many of us probably do, I consider it a tribute to my lost love, as this song's lyrics describe perfectly how I feel each day about her, 9 months after she left me..
@DCBA25 agree it definitely is a heart broken song about a lover leaving them (and them being pretty oblivious to the impending break).

These lyrics are what Geezer Butler wrote about Bill Wards breakup with his wife. I think this song really describes Bills feelings at the time, and Ozzys sorrowfull singing makes it complete!:)
"Changes" is a ballad inspired mainly by Bill Ward's ongoing breakup with his first wife
The title is a double-entendre. Ozzy is singing about two simultaneous changes in his life: 1. He's going through a breakup with his longtime girlfriend/wife. That's obviously a big, painful change for him. Change # 2 is the psychedelic change that's occurring to him as he's tripping balls and thinking about the breakup. This aspect of "changes" is the drug-induced hallucinations that cause the world around him to "change". That's why the song has an eerie feel and the refrain has a magnified double-tracked vocal. It accentuates the psychedelic effect to the drugged listener.
good song
Though it does talk about a breakup, the song reminds me more about the girl dying and leaving the guy blaming himself for her death.
@Mai-Coh-Ah-Jah an interesting interpretation ... I too definitely thought that death could be what has caused their separation.
