Lyrics Everything Changes - Steve Harley , Cockney Rebel

Harley

I can remember heaven
It came to me only seven years ago
When I was a lad and from the professionals I got fired.

Had a good time in a way
Took a different trip a day
Buried the fear that I was only here to be borrowed or hired.

Oh what a shame, nothing can stay the same.

Young enough to have some fun
Old enough to hold a gun
I can remember playing games with pistols not so long ago.

Many times I reminisce
About this solitude and bliss
We enjoyed as children, oh did we really have to grow?

Oh what a shame, nothing can stay the same.

She came to me soft, asunder
Showed me the distant thunder blue
Told me the clouds could help us all, told me the Prophet says the Man is deep in you.

I took a sonic pill and slept
Begged her never tell then wept
Any friend or enemy of me could only lend you a clue.

Oh what a shame, nothing can stay the same.

Shame.
