david bowie - changes (live 1973) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i still don’t know what i was waiting for
and my time was running wild
a million dead-end streets
every time i thought i’d got it made
it seemed the taste was not so sweet
then i turned myself to face me
but i’ve never caught a glimpse
of how the others must see the faker
i’m much too fast to take that test

[chorus]
ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strange)
ch-ch-changes
don’t want to be a richer man
ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strange)
ch-ch-changes
just wanted to be a different man
time may change me
but i can’t trace time

ooh yeah

[verse 2]
i watch the ripples change their size
but never leave the stream
of warm impermanence and
so the days float through my eyes
but still the days seem the same
just the same, quite the same
and these children that you spit on
as they try to change their worlds
are they immune to your consultations?
they’re quite aware of what they’re going through

[chorus]
ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strange)
ch-ch-changes
don’t tell them to grow up and out of it
ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strange)
ch-ch-changes
where’s your shame
pretty soon you’ve left us up to our necks in it
time may change me
but you can’t trace time

[bridge]
strange fascination, fascinating me
changes are taking the pace i’m going through

[chorus]
ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strange)
ch-ch-changes
look out you rock ‘n rollers
ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strange)
ch-ch-changes
pretty soon now you’re gonna get older
time may change me
but i can’t trace time
i said that time may change me
but i can’t trace time

[saxophone/piano outro]

[audience applause]
