Everyone is going through changes
No one knows what's going on.
And everybody changes places-
But the world still carries on.
Love must always change to sorrow
And everyone must play the game,
It's here today and gone tomorrow-
But the world goes on the same.
Now love must always change to sorrow...
And everyone must play the game,
It's here today and gone tomorrow-
