Story Behind The Song
'Change' is a song I can't imagine not writing. It exists purely to mark my obsession with impermanence, to remind me to hold things gently and to be brave with the unwaveringly profound acceptance that everything is in movement, flow and change.

Lyrics
As oceans know
We could find ourselves Under the moon
Way down below Before these tipping tides Hold your mind Suppose you stop
Upon losing your way
And the roots you leave behind Feet flat to the rock Head left wondering
Wondering where to hide
In these brokedown times
Or walk boldly out under the sun Take a step into the unknown And see what's begun
If you're afraid to try
Let your feet go
If you wait for your sign
You could be waiting some time For your stars to arrange
If your choices are slim Won't you dive right in
'Cos there's nothing but change
In this strange light Seems like nothing so small Could make things alright But what peace we find Despite the rolling seas The crazy times
I wish you land
I wish you all the love you can And if you're in doubt Well we're all wondering
Wondering where to hide
In these brokedown times
Or walk boldly out under the sun Take a step into the unknown And see what's begun
If you're afraid to try
Let your feet go
If you wait for your sign
You could be waiting some time For your stars to arrange
If your choices are slim Won't you dive right in
'Cos there's nothing but change
With no place to go
See it slipping right by
With nowhere left to grow
As these days may dim
Deep within you have
Something to begin
There's no place that stands
That doesn't hold back the times cruel hands And no soul that feels
That isn't wondering
Wondering where to hide
In these brokedown times
Or walk boldly out under the sun Take a step into the unknown And see what's begun
If you're afraid to try
Let your feet go
If you wait for your sign
You could be waiting some time For your stars to arrange
If your choices are slim Won't you dive right in
'Cos there's nothing but change
