Lyrics

Face the Change

Turns back to front

Turns hate to love

The simple things that mean a lot

Turns rock to sand

Turns ice to snow

It's you and me about to grow

Change the face of a magazine

Face the change of a million years

Stare in shock at what you saw

Take a breath, better lock the door

Tell your children what to do

Mistakes and all they still love you

Change the face of a magazine

Face the change of a million years

Turns rough to smooth

Turns don't to do

To reminisce turns me to you

Turns war to peace

Turns greed to need

The consequence of visionaries

Change the face of a magazine

Face the change of a million years

Stare in shock at what you saw

Take a breath, better lock the door

Tell your children what to do

Mistakes and all they still love you

Change the face of a magazine

Face the change of a million years

Turns back to front

Turns hate to love

The simple things that mean a lot

Turns rock to sand

Turns ice to snow

It's you and me about to grow

Change the face of a magazine

Face the change of a million years

Stare in shock at what you saw

Take a breath, better lock the door

Tell your children what to do

Mistakes and all they still love you

Change the face of a magazine

Face the change of a million years
