Something changed today

I finally took the headphones off

And as the sound waves died away

I heard my heart say

I hate to see you work so hard

And still life slip away


I gave my life. I sweat. I cried

For things that can't cry over me

When the day is done

The most important ones

Get the old remains

They get the cold leftovers. So...


I'm going, I'm going home

Take messages

I've been away for too long

So take messages


And it takes some faith

To grab the wheel and drive away

Changing is an art

But I recognize

I had the wrong priorities

First my head and then my heart


My children's eyes

Their changing size

Now that's reality

My woman's arms

Her hungry heart

The spiritual presence

It's like a magnet. So...
