Change, like the wind, like the water, like skin
Change, like the sky, like the leaves, like a butterfly
Would you live forever and never die? While everything around passes?
Would you smile forever and never cry? While everything you know passes?
Death, like a door to a place we've never been before
Death, like space, the deep sea, a suitcase
* Would you stare forever at the sun Never watch the moon rising?
Would you walk forever in the light To never learn the secrets of the quiet night?
Still, like a stone, like a hill, like home Still, what I find
Is you were always on my mind
** Could I feel happy for you When I hear you talk with her like we used to?
Could I set everything free When I watch you holding her the way you once held me?
Change, like the sky, like the leaves, like a butterfly
Death, like a door to a place we've never been before
