Lyrics

Changes

Gotta shake myself up here
I should run away, run away, run away
People say "Don't even go near"
I can see the danger, I'm aware, I see the danger

If I go back once again, it's like I learned nothing
I'm standing at the front of a queue heading for trouble

Hope it changes, hope my life changes
Gets alright somehow
Oh, I'm waiting for tomorrow

I hope it changes
Can't just stay the same
Been out of luck for so long
And I don't get much
So there's nothing much to lose

It's like a record going round
Yes, this is going 'round, going 'round, going 'round
I know I should wanna take it off
But I find it hard, why do I find it hard?

I used to have a vision
I was sitting somewhere up there
Looking down on myself doing right
For once in my life

It changes
Hope my life changes
Gets alright somehow
Oh, I'm waiting for tomorrow
I hope it changes
Can't just stay the same
Been out of luck for so long
I don't get much, so there's nothing much to lose

I just need a break, a little one
To get me up to watch the sun
And hey, it's peaceful here
I like it

Hope it changes
Hope my life changes
Gets alright somehow (somehow)
Oh, I'm waiting for tomorrow
I hope it changes (I hope it changes)
Can't just stay the same (can't just stay the same)
Been out of luck for so long (can't just stay the same)
Don't get much, so there's nothing to lose

Oh, I'm waiting for tomorrow
I hope it changes
Can't just stay the same
Been out of luck for so long
Don't get much, so there's nothing to lose

Don't get so much so there's nothing to lose
(I'm not about to run away)
(Something always changes)
(I'm prepared to see that way)
Oh, I'm waiting for tomorrow
I hope it changes
Can't just stay the same
Been out of luck for so long
Oh, I'm waiting for tomorrow
