Текст песни It Changes (2004 - Remaster) - Peggy Lee

Just when you think that you know where you stand
You've got the world in your hand
Just when you're sure of a dream that you planned
That's when the scenery changes, it changes

Just when you think that you know all the facts
You hold a whole ball of wax
You've got it made, you can start to relax
That's when your world rearranges

And changes
Someone that you really cared about
Someone that you couldn't live without
Severs the ties

All at once you're all alone and scared
All the happy hellos that you shared
Change to goodbyes

Why must we pay for hellos that we say
Pay when we sigh an adieu
Just when you're sure, and you're safe and secure

That's when it happens to you
It changes

Why can't we get together with all the people
In the world we really like, and then just stay together forever?
But someone would leave. Someone always leaves
And then we'd have to say goodbye. I hate goodbyes

Why must we pay for hellos that we say
Pay when we sigh an adieu
Just when you're sure, and you're safe and secure

That's when it happens to you
It changes
Why oh, why

What we need are more hellos
