“Changes”

Seasons may change
We stay the same
We always stay the same
We always stay the same

Winter brings snow
When no, no flowers grow
They wait ’til the spring
Yes, they wait ’til the spring

In the spring, young men roam
’Til they’re old enough to know better, better

Leaves have turned green
Now spring has been and gone
Summer’s here
It’s gone, summer’s here

They autumn trees sway to and fro
Their leaves turn brown, now young men know better, better

Everyone feels good
And I knew they would
It’s been quite a good year
It’s been quite a good year
It’s been quite a good year

“Just let me listen to that.”
