Changes

The speaker is grieving the end of a close romantic relationship. At first, he expresses sadness and loss; later, he recognizes that he did not understand what was happening until it was too late. The repeated phrase “I’m going through changes” suggests that he is facing a painful period of emotional change, though he does not yet seem to know how to move forward.

The image of “days … filled with tears” makes his grief feel constant and present in ordinary life. “My heart was blinded” suggests that strong feelings, or a failure to see clearly, kept him from recognizing that the relationship was going wrong. The wish to “go back and change these years” is an everyday way of expressing regret: he longs to undo the past, even though he cannot.

The lyrics leave some details unclear. “The world had its evil way” may refer to outside pressures or simply to events that harmed the relationship, but the speaker does not explain what happened. His words also hold both love and regret: he remembers their shared life fondly while admitting that he let her go. “Changes” may mean the upheaval caused by the breakup, the process of accepting it, or both.
