I hear the wind blow and the moon slide down your dress
Must be the summer night that shines upon your face
That makes me feel like I never want to leave
But both of us know there's nothing growing here
And in a minute we'll be taking different streets
Must be a better show
Something that won't want to go
And will stay the same for years and years
I see the ribbons and the frills all 'round your hair
Must be hiding something, but I look and nothing's there
The quiet eyes that you show me tonight
May change to thunder at the ficker of a light
And by the morning they may have changed quite a lot
Must be something better here
Something that will stay with me
And will stay the same for years and years
Instrumental (first five lines)
Why must a gentle breeze
Give rise to a hurricane
Why can't it stay the same for years and years
The thunder rolls and the earth begins to shake
New continents will form in a giant quake
The earth is changing so fast I just can't see
The old mountain range sinks beneath the sea
And it makes me wonder what's happening to me
All the things that seem so firm
Are changing at every turn
They've all been changing from year to year
And now you say it's late, it's time for you to go
I knew it wouldn't last, and you know I told you so
The words you spoke have changed into good-byes
Come morning you won't remember lying by my side
And next time you see me you won't even recognize me
But that's alright, I'll still be lookin'
For something that will stay with me
And will stay the same for years and years
