Such a low down dirty trick you played me
You work your witchcraft so well
Straight through my bleeding heart
Another martyr to your hypodermic kiss
Your needle don't ever seem to miss
Time changes everything
Why did we have to say goodbye
I know why the caged bird sings
Time changes
Everything
Is that a face I saw at the window
Did I hear footsteps out in the hall?
All the people that we used to know
Faces stranded in my mind
Faces drawn without lines,
Time changes everything
Why did we have to say goodbye
I know why the caged bird sings
Time changes
Everything
How can the world keep on turning?
Well what else is it gonna do?
I'm still growing, I'm still learning
I'm not the only child
Hanging in the frame with you
Time changes everything
Why did we have to say goodbye
I know why the caged bird sings
Time changes
Everything
