Christy Moore - Changes lyrics

Sit by my side come as close as
The air sharing a memory of grey
Wander in my world, dream about
The pictures I play, of changes

Green leaves of summer turn red in the fall
To brown and to yellow they fade
Then they have to die and drop within
The circle grand parade of changes

Scenes of my young years are warm in
My mind visions of shadows that shine
'til one day I return and find they were
The victims of the vines of changes

The world is spinning madly
Adrift in the dark
It swings through a hollow of haze
A race around the stars
A journey through the universe
Ablaze with changes
Moments of magic will glow through the night
All fears of the forest are gone
When the morning breaks they're
Swept away like
Golden drops of dawn by changes

Oceans will part to a strange melody
As fires will sometimes burn cold
Like water in the wind we are puppets
To the silver strings of changes

Our tears will be trembling when
We are somewhere else
One last cup of wine we will pour
I'll kiss you one more time and leave you
On the rolling river shore of changes
