Bruce Hornsby Changes Made? Lyrics

Changes Made? Lyrics


Man with a knife, expert, kind of a Jim Bowie type.

Swaggerin'.  Blusterin'. Coonskin.  I said, "You're not serious,
right?"

Then I saw him grab my friend by the hair

And I knew I should've stayed.

As I ducked around the corner,

I said to myself,

Gonna be some changes made.



A girl I knew and loved alone for years from afar

Put her finger to her lips and led me out to see the stars.

She led me down to the moonlit lake;

We laughed and we played.

Then she took my hand and put it there:

Gonna be some changes made.



Up in front for all to see, actin like I'm cool.

I know it's just a cover for a man who's been a fool.

Maybe no one notices,

But the double image stays.

Can't live with me much longer.

Said there needs to be some changes made.



Goin home.  I've done enough to sell my little name.

Goin where the fields are green and I can do my macrame.

I've been a man without a clue who likes to shift the blame

And often feels betrayed.

There's gonna be some changes made.
