I know that everything changes
It's strange how time marches on
Well maybe there'll be some future time
Oh, tell me I'm not wrong
Oh, if I could stop time
It'd be a moment at Christmas
When all of mankind reveals it's truest potential
I swear a change comes over us
As sure as I'm standing here
The world embraces peace and love
Instead of power and fear
Glimpse for one shining moment
It feels like a change that's real
But then it fades with the season
And we're back to the way things were
Oh, say that it isn't so
Tell me that I'm not just a dreamer
Wise men who see the inn
Lamenting our human nature
Saying, "That's just the way that we are"
