change

[nigel lawry]

change

I have changed the way I see today

I’m going to look at it all in a different way

take in both sides, take it in my stride

from now on I will not hide

I have changed the way I feel today

all is not lost all is not bleak

I’m going to do it all now  

instead of next week

I have changed my outlook on life today

the time has come to make a better way

to help others who have gone astray

to give some hope along the way

a change is long over due

and I’m not going to leave it up to you

this is something I must do

to banish the lies and see the truth
