I’m posting some lyrics as sort of a precursor to a post concerning some issues in my life. Yesterday I made a post (that eventually was changed to friends only) that was me ranting about some unnamed stress in my life. The reaction came as it often does. Some very food sage advise on stress management form people who share my philosophy… an old friend reminding me that she really is a sounding board for my whimperings… and a flurry of IM’s from people who just want to check in.<\/p>\n
All in all… it was pleasing. It of course merely provided mechanisms to reduce the internal personal angst… but I still need to deal with what is instigating the stress. I needed to look at the issue. Last night I had dinner with a great gentleman who I haven’t had a lot of time or opportunity to socialize with. We talked philosophy. Along the way he made a casual statement unrelated to everything I’m dealing with and yet it was utterly enlightening to my current situation in many ways…<\/p>\n
So, while I figure out what I’m really trying to say…<\/p>\n
Please note… I am in a very happy, very fulfilling relationship. These lyrics mostly fit and they are referring to things that I’m dealing with in a figurative and symbolic way. It is not meant to be taken literally.<\/p>\n
I’m moving through some changes
\nI’ll never be the same
\nSomething you did touched me
\nThere’s no one else to blame<\/p>\n
The love we had has fallen
\nThe love we used to share
\nWe’ve given up pretending
\nAs if you didn’t care<\/p>\n
Change changing places
\nRoot yourself to the ground
\nCapitalize on this good fortune
\nOne word can bring you round
\nChanges<\/p>\n
I look into the mirror
\nI see no happiness
\nAll the warmth I gave you
\nHas turned to emptiness
\nThe love we had has fallen
\nThe love we used to share
\nYou’ve left me here believing
\nIn love that wasn’t there<\/p>\n
Change changing places
\nRoot yourself to the ground
\nWord to the wise – well you get what’s coming
\nOne word can bring you round
\nChanges<\/p>\n
When I look into your eyes and try to find out how
\nThere’s no way to save it now
\nAnd everything I feel
\nChanges
\nKeep looking for
\nChanges
\nChanges<\/p>\n
For some reason you’re questioning why
\nI always believe it gets better
\nOne difference between you and i
\nYour heart is inside your head<\/p>\n
One word from you
\nOne word from me
\nA clear design on your liberty
\nWho could believe when love has gone
\nHow we move on like everyone<\/p>\n
Only such fools
\nOnly such jealous hearts<\/p>\n
Only through love changes come<\/p>\n
Change changing places
\nRoot yourself to the ground
\nCapitalize on this good fortune
\nOne word can bring you round
\nChanges<\/p>\n
One road to loneliness
\nIt’s always the same
\nOne road to happiness
\nIt’s calling your name<\/p>\n
Change changing places – changes
\nRoot yourself to the ground
\nCapitalize on this good fortune
\nOne word can bring you round
\nChanges<\/p>\n
Change changing places
\nChanges
\nRoot yourself to the ground
\nWord to the wise – well you get what’s coming
\nOne word – one word can bring you round
\nChanges<\/p>\n
