This Is It
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When the feelings come to me once again,
And I still hear the words they're saying.
And while I'm wondering if I can step in,
I'll take comfort in the sounds that's playing.
'Cause when I am feeling fine,
Don't want to walk away,
Don't want to lose myself,
No matter what I say.
There is a game in town,
This is it!
They call it the new change.
And when the feelings rise,
Pulling me off my knees.
I won't be scared of it,
'Cause I cant believe.
There is a game in town, This is it!
They call it the new change.
And when I'm pleading but I can't get in,
When no one's listening to a word I am saying,
There is no reason why we can't begin,
Broken hearts are congregating.
'Cause when the feeling's fine,
And the world steps in.
I'll organise myself,
I'll get my mind moving.
There is a game in town,
This is it!
They call it the new change.
And when I'm running scared,
And I cant resist,
I'll organise myself,
With all the chances missed.
There is a game in town,
This is it!
They call it the new change.
And when I'm running scared,
And I cant resist,
I'll organise myself,
For all the chances missed.
There is a game in town,
This is it!
They call it the new change.
This is it, this is it, they call it the new change.
