"The Change" lyrics - GARTH BROOKS

One hand reaches out, and pulls a lost soul from harm
While a thousand more, go unspoken for
And they say what good have you done, by saving just this one?
It's like whispering a prayer, in the fury of a storm

And I hear them saying, you'll never change things
And no matter what you do, it's still the same thing
But it's not the world, that I am changing
I do this so this world will know, that it will not change me

This heart still believes, that love and mercy still exist
While all the hatreds rage, and so many say
That love is all but pointless, in madness such as this
It's like trying to stop a fire, with the moisture from a kiss

And I hear them saying, you'll never change things
And no matter what you do, it's still the same thing
But it's not the world, that I am changing
I do this so this world will know, that it will not change me

As long as one heart still holds on
Then hope is never really gone

And I hear them saying, you'll never change things
And no matter what you do, it's still the same thing
But it's not the world, that I am changing
I do this so, this world we know, never changes me

What I do is so, this world will know
That it will not change me
