S it by my si de come as cl ose as the ai r
S hare in a m emory of g ray
And w ander in my w ords
D ream about the pi ctures that I p lay o f chan ges
G reen leaves o f summer tur n to red in the fall
T o brown and to yellow they f ade
A nd then they have to die
T rapped within the circle time pa rade o f changes
S cenes of my young years wer e warm in my m ind
V isions of sh adows that s hine
O ne day I return ed
a nd found that th ey were victims of th e vines of chang es
T he world's spinni ng madly it drifts in the d ark
I t swings throug h a hollow of h aze
A race around the star s
A journey through the universe abl aze wi th changes
M oments of magic will glow in the nig ht
F ears of the for est are all go ne
B ut when the morning bre aks
T hey're swept away b y golden drops of dawn of change s
P assions will part to a stra nge melody
A s fires will som etimes burn co ld
L ike petals in the wi nd
W e're puppets to th e silver strings of s ouls of changes
Y our tears will be t rembling no w we're somewhere else
O ne last cup o f wine we'll pou r
A nd I'll kiss you one more ti me
A nd leave you on t he rolling river sho res of change s
