Things I Cannot Change

Leaves fall in the cool October air

Days grow short and I can't remember

Where I saw you last

Turned against the summerlight

Walking off on that final August night

I was there on my knees all alone

In a world where nothing ever stays the same

I am left with only things I cannot change

You're gone away

And left me things I cannot change

Smoke will rise and the fire always burns

Sands will drift and tides will turn

And I can't wrestle with the sea

Rearrange the sky or fight against the wind

Anymore than I can bring you back to me

In a world where nothing ever stays the same

I am left with only things I cannot change

You're gone away

And left me things I cannot change

So far away and left me things I cannot change

Left me things I cannot change

Left me things I cannot change
