Things Change
Camille And Stuie Lyrics

I was sitting here 10 years ago
Reflecting on time that has passed.

Lost on a dark crossroad
Feeling directionless and unsure about life choices.

Things change
Acknowledging that everything is constantly evolving and nothing stays the same forever.

I'm still here But i cant believe
Expressing gratitude for still being around, while also feeling surprised at how time has flown by.

These little faces that look like me
Observing the passage of time through the growth of children who resemble the singer.

One two three Start making memories
Encouraging listeners to make the most of their time by creating meaningful experiences.

four five six Life just passes by so quick
Highlighting how quickly time goes by.

seven eight nine You will turn around and find
Reminding listeners that they will look back on their lives and realize how much has changed.

Like a tree he was so tall and strong
Drawing a metaphor between the changes of nature and people's lives.

Than one day he was gone
Pointing out the sudden and unexpected nature of change.

But in the twinkle of an eye
Emphasizing how quickly things can change.

I heard our little babies cry
Noting the joy that new life can bring, even amidst change.

With his little bag and uniform
Describing a child heading off to school, which is a rite of passage that marks the passing of time.

I hear the bell, my heart is torn
Expressing the bittersweet emotions that come with change.

It takes me back to my first day
Reflecting on personal memories and how they serve as a reminder of change.

Teary eyed, my mortal way
Expressing vulnerability and the fact that everyone is mortal and subject to change.
