Sit by my side, come as close as the air
                   
Share in a memory of gray
                                 
Wander in my words and dream about the pictures
                 
That I play
                                  
Green leaves of summer turn red in the fall
                          
To brown and to yellow they fade.
                      
And then they have to die, trapped within
                      
The circle time parade of changes
                                     
Scenes of my young years were warm in my mind
                      
Visions of shadows that shine.
                      
Til one day I returned and found they were the
                    
Victims of the vines of changes

SOLO

                                              
Your tears will be trembling, now we're somewhere else,
                            
One last cup of wine we will pour
                             
And  kiss you one more time, and leave you on
                        
The rolling river shores of changes.
                                 
Sit by my side, come as close as the air
                   
Share in a memory of gray
                                 
Wander in my words and dream about the pictures
              
That I play   of changes  of changes
