My, How We've Changed <br />Once so beautiful <br />Life and time has rearranged <br />So many hardships, heartbreaks <br />we feel so shortchanged <br />misunderstood, estranged <br />life asks now that everything be prearranged <br />but inside we're more beautiful now <br />our hearts have been broken down <br />and built back up again <br />but our inner hopes, our child's heart <br />that can't be changed <br />but the world around us feels so strange <br />what we need the most is just a chance <br />to taste the beauty of romance <br />to find a lover by fate or happenstance <br />that opens up their heart to the magic of the dance <br />and then they'll feel it too <br />that all of life could be brand new <br />and perhaps this tattered shell the'll see right through <br />perhaps too through the sad and blue <br />to the part that's never changed <br />and always dreamed and to hope of love, remained true <br />That's the part of me I'd give to you <br />Tears of sparkling scattered light <br />try to let sadness escape and make it right <br />But all the teardrops that fall <br />cannot express it all <br />and only that feeling you can ever feel <br />if we fall in love <br />and love is real<br /><br />JAMES T.
