If I can ever hope to change
A lifetime's sad mistakes
And never be afraid
That I may blow away
Like a wind
Like a sailing ship
A million miles away
From here, today
And when we breathe...
And when we see...
And here's to you -
When I walk this way
I will see you change
As the streets go by
And the sky goes grey
And I will be compelled to play
These awful games
Again, and again and again and again
I know
Times will always change
But some things never fade
And I will spin away
Like the wind
Across these sunlit streets
A million miles away
From here, today
And as we breathe...
And while we sleep...
And when we wake
I will know this place
I will see you change
As the streets go by
And the sky goes grey
And I will be inspired to take
Those wild eternal tides
Again, and again and again and again
