From Time to Time: The Singles Collection lyrics

Everything Must Change

I was never one to back out of an argument
and say I was wrong.
Even when I'd seen the other side

I'd hide my foolishness and carry on.
But still I'd embarrassed

'Cause they'd seen what happened and they playin' along.
Until I backed myself into a corner

I will only realize when they had gone.

And like a dream alive
a reason - everything must change.
- Every-

Living on free food tickets,
water in the milk from a hole in the roof
where the rain came through.
What can you do?
Tears from your little sister,
crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress without a patch
for the party to go.
But you know she'll get by

'cause she's living in the love of the common people,
smile's from the heart of a family man.

EVERYTHING MUST CHANGE
I was never one to back out of an argument and say I was wrong,
even when I'd seen the other side I'd hide my foolishness and carry on.
But still I'd be embarrassed 'cos they'd see what happened and they's play along
until I back myself into a corner I would only realise when they had gone.
And like a dream, a life, a reason,

there is freedom within there is freedom without
try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
there's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
but you never see the end of the road
while you're travelling with me
hey now hey now
don't dream it's over
hey now hey now
when the world comes in
they come they come
to build a wall between us
we know they won't win

Oh Girl
I'd be in trouble if you left me now.
'cause I don't know where to look for love,
I Just don't know how.

Oh Girl
How I depend on you
to give me love when I need it.
Right on time you would always be.

All my friends call me a fool.
They say, "Let the woman take care of you."
So I try to be hip and think like the crowd.
But even the crowd can't help me now, oh-oh-oh

Oh Girl

Since you've been gone
I shut my eyes
And I fantasize
That you're here with me

Will you ever return?
I want you satisfide
Till you're by my side
Don't wait any longer...

Why don't you come back?
Please hurry, Why dont you come back?
Please hurry...
Come back and stay for good this time
Come back and stay for good this time

You said goodbye
I was trying to hide
What I felt inside
