[Verse 1]
A missed step by the river's edge
A chosen word, but it took too long
Your last chance is all he said
You won't miss it, till it's gone

[Pre-Chorus 1]
A ghost in the distance
Where the ocean meets the land
A fallen angel in a trance
A conversation you don't understand

[Chorus]
Change - everybody wants it
Just a little hope and honesty
Change - everybody needs it
Open up our hearts so that we can see

[Verse 2]
A young man with a blue beard
Counting days that seem too long
Can't wait, wait another minute
For my fifteen minutes in the sun

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Gotta sweep this act I follow
Dust off this passion play
Believe in fate, cast off this sorrow
It's just a stone's throw away
[Chorus]
Change - everybody wants it
Just a little hope and honesty
Change - everybody needs it
Open up our hearts so that we can see

[Verse 3]
Some will think I'm crazy
Some will think I'm strange
I'm trying to satisfy this hunger
Somebody stop this pain

[Pre-Chorus 3]
No signs of redemption
Can't take the guilt they live
Gonna live and die in this world
Pushin' and pullin' till something gives

[Chorus]
Change - everybody wants it
Just a little hope and honesty
Change - everybody needs it
Open up our hearts so that we can see
Change

[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Change - everybody wants it
Just a little hope and honesty
Change - everybody needs it
Open up our hearts so that we can see

[Verse 4]
Visions of such temptation
We can never take it too far
That's the price of the true sensation
To find out who we really are

[Pre-Chorus 4]
Keep digging, digging for answers
Keep searchin', you can't give in
Will we ever understand?
A truth we cannot comprehend

[Chorus]
Change - everybody wants it
Just a little hope and honesty
Change - everybody needs it
Open up our hearts so that we can see

[Verse 1]
A missed step by the rivers edge
A chosen word, but it took too long
Your last chance is all he said
You won't miss it 'till it's gone
[Chorus]
Change
Change
Change - everybody wants it
Just a little hope and honesty
Change - everybody needs it
Open up our hearts so that we can see
Change - everybody wants it
Just a little hope and honesty
Change - everybody needs it
Open up our hearts so that we can see
