When I need a break
There’s a place I like to go
Sometimes it’s just the water
Sometimes the islands show

It reminds me of us
How we aren’t always there
I’m never sure where we stand
Or if we even care

Things change
Things I used to touch
What always was is now not so much
When I see a lake run dry
I realize what money can’t buy
Yeah things change
Things change

I wonder where life may lead
I have no money
I have no home
There's no place to plant a seed

Is it about being alone
On an island of sand?
Is it as simple
As needing to hold someone’s hand?

Things change
Things I used to touch
What always was is now not so much
When I see a lake run dry
I realize what money can’t buy
Yeah things change
Things change

Maybe this is all there is
It seems we still can laugh
We can take one night
And forget about the past

They say, "embrace change"
But sometimes it's not to be
We don’t care about tomorrow
Or is that just me?

Things change
Things I used to touch
What always was is now not so much
When I see a lake run dry
I realize what money can’t buy
Yeah things change
Things change
