Change

Well the stars are out tonight
And I got nowhere to go
Well my nowhere is somewhere
You really don't wanna know

And in the morning
I'll be at the stoplight
Looking kinda strange
Asking for forgivness and
Begging for some change
Begging for a change
That will turn my life around
Change that will put my feet on the ground
Change that will make everything okay

Well I don't like standing here
With a bucket and a sign
And I haven't seen my family
In a very long time
And I don't mean to make you feel guilty
On top of all your stress and strain
Like me you are praying to the Lord above
Begging for some change
Yeah, you are begging for a change
That will turn your life around
Change that will put your feet on the ground
Change that will make everything okay

For a change of the good of everyone
Change for the love of everyone
Change that will make everything all right

And don't act like you don't see me
'Cause brother I know you do
How about a little donation
I wanna help you too

For a change that will turn your life around
A change that will put your feet on the ground
A change that will make everything okay
Yes, it will

Well, I got no room for a sofa
And I got no tv
But I got this little lady
A kind stranger that came to me
And I heard about the bloody school yards
And the questions of who to blame
I hear the children crying for a change
Begging for a change
Yeah, they are begging for a change
That will turn their life around
Change that will put their feet on the ground
Change that will make everything okay
