Arms around my body

Kisses on my skin

I walk away

I walk away

But he lingers



Maybe it should matter

More to be myself

I walk away

I walk away

But he lingers



And everyone says

This love will change you

Well I ask, does anything ever stay the same

No, no, no

Just same changes



Ooh (changes, the same)

Ooh (changes, the same)



In the magic hour

Lantern petals glow

I walk away

I walk away

But you linger



Light as any flower

You don’t even know

You pick me up

You pick me up

With two fingers



And everyone says

This love will change you

Well I ask, does anything ever stay the same

No, no, no

Just same changes



Ooh (changes, the same)

Ooh (changes, the same)



Every day I want to freeze frame

Scrambling my sleep to keep this fragile frame

From the wind, from the driving rain

Soon as it begins it begins to change its strange changes



Ooh (changes, the same)

Ooh (changes, the same)



Careful and with patience

Hold this tender heart

Leave a well of tiny threads with two fingers

Standing in the garden

Gathering the dusk

We hold the sun and golden one and we linger



And everyone says

This love will change you

Well I ask, isn’t that what love’s supposed to do

Yeah, yeah, yeah

It’s same changes



Ooh (changes, the same)

Ooh (changes, the same)

Ooh (changes, the same)

Ooh (changes, the same)
