Things Will Change

She wants to go like water and flow around the world and back again
And he says, girl don’t you leave cause you’ll never come back to what you left behind
‘Cause things will change…you know that things will change

She grabs her bags and heads for the backdoor when a picture slows her down. [It] was taken ten years ago and she’s wearing the same clothes and the same sad look right now. She thought well, Things must change. You know that things must change

CHORUS:
Girl, go and find place where you can shine, shine, shine, shine
Don’t let nobody rush you, take your time, time, time, time
It is your life to change and you’ll be fine, fine, fine
Just spread your wings, your heart already knows how to fly

She trips and falls but straight through it all, her chin is up, her back straight.
Yeah people know who she is, ‘cause she smiles when she’s down when they ask her why she says:: I know that things will change, I know that things will change…

CHORUS:
I’m looking for a place where I can shine, shine, shine, shine
Don’t let nobody rush me, take my time, time, time, time
It is my life to change and I’ll be fine, fine, fine
Just spread my wings my heart already knows how to fly

She walks his way nearly every day and never sees how hard he tries, he loves her for
Who she is and when they get married he calls her butterfly
He knows that she will change; he loves that she will change

Then one day she finds her way back to where it all began
Her daughter is walking up to her. Singing, she takes her hand… she says,

Just spread your wings… your heart already…
Knows how to fly
