The Changes
J.Appiah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Bridge:]
If I ever give you all of me (if I ever)
Just a piece of me that you can see
Will you ever make a change for me?
A change in you is a change for me, baby

[Verse 1:]
I said you ought to make a change
Find a way to love yourself
Open up your heart and mind
In there, you will find
The key to a new life

[Chorus:]
The words "I'm sorry"
Are said a thousand times
But what's it going to take
For you to change your life around?
If you truly want to be happy
Then recognize in yourself
There's a true gift from life
The truth in life
It just a piece of me that you can see
Will you ever make a change for me?
Change in you is a change for me (oh yes)

[Verse 2:]
Take a longer look at yourself
Find the hidden truth and let it exhale
Let me lead the way (uh oh oh oh)
Can you evasion all the things that I see? (oh oh)





[Chorus 2x]
