[Verse 1]
I had a lot to drink last night
I had a lot to say
I woke up with a busted lip
And a stream of words dripping down my face

[Verse 2]
Times are changing
Times are changing, my love
Times are changing
And everybody knows
That we can't get along

[Pre-Chorus]
This is how it all went wrong
Where you are's not where you're from

[Chorus]
But I'm always holding out for peacetime
Holding out for grace
Everyone is leaving
And they won't come back again
No time for a gesture
No need to re-engage
You can move to dreamland
But I'm holding out for change
[Verse 3]
I never was a lucky one
I never was a saint
But now the devil is creeping out
And he don't care for your give and take
'Cause we can't get along

[Pre-Chorus]
This is how it all went wrong
Where you are's not where you're from

[Chorus]
But I'm always holding out for peacetime
Holding out for grace
Everyone is leaving
And they won't come back again
No time for a gesture
No need to re-engage
You can move to dreamland
But I'm holding out for change
