Meanings Will Change

歌詞

Meanings will change as you learn to grow And all that is known becomes suddenly old And that which you had to last you 'til the end Turns out to be just a passing friend And would you spend your life away Collecting great treasures So you'd be safe someday? And when you're old, and when you're gray meanings will change; life's just that way When you're finally sure You think you understand All about living and life's demands Someone will touch you and you'll see again Meanings will change; you just can't win So don't you worry 'bout your money friend Don't you worry 'bout your fame It's all a conspiracy; all part of a game And you're the conspirator; the silent enemy And you're the victim. You finally see After you get to where you have to be After you own everything you see When meanings don't change About the things you knew You might as well die, it's all over for you If you're wise and if you know What few things are real which never grow old Then take them now and make you a start With a simple life and a simple heart.
