I can remember those days as a child
When life was a treasure filled with wonder and joy
The simplest of things were filled with such pleasure
And love was a virtue time could not destroy.
Oh, I still need these things to believe in
To protect my heart from the rain.
Something's gone wrong.
Oh, the old feeling is gone.
Lord, I need a change;
A change in the way that I'm living;
A different way to deal;
A change in the way I perceive this old world.
Oh, I need something that's real.
These days I wonder, what's become of that boy?
I know he has traveled on many dark roads.
How can a soul wipe clean of the sorrow?
And how can a heart unburden that load?
I still need these things to believe in
That protect my heart from the rain.
Oh, but something's gone wrong.
The feeling is gone,
And, oh, Lord, I need a change.
I need a change in the way that I'm living;
A different way to deal;
A change in the way I perceive this old world.
Oh, I need something that's real.
Oh, Lord, I need something to feel,
Oh, something to feel.
