Henley Don Everything Is Different Now Lyrics

Everything Is Different Now Lyrics

I hate to tell you this, but I'm very, very happy

And I know that's not what you'd expect from me at all

I'm not the kind to smile and bow out gracefully

I always wanted to take it to the wall



But I found somebody with a heart as big as Texas

I found an angel with the golden wings

She saw me down here in the dark somehow

And everything is different now



Yeah, I miss the old crowd sometimes

And the wild, wild nights of running

You know, a starving sould can't live like that for long

You go around in circles that just keep getting smaller

You wake up one morning and half your life is gone



I got so tired of that, I got so lonely

I dropped down and I called out to Heaven

"Send me someone to love."

And Heaven show back, "You get the love that you allow."

And everything is different now



Oh, and it's sweet to know

The wisdom that living brings

Since I got a telegram from the god of simple things



She said "I don't care what you do for a living."

She said "I don't care what kind of car you drive."

"All I want to know right now is what you believe in

And what it means for you to be alive.

Will you stand here in this fire with me?

Are you ready for another life?"

So I bit that bullet, and took that vow

And everything is different now

Everything is different now
