| See the house up on the hill |
| It left a hole too big to fill |
| Without a foundation |
| They thought the limit was the sky |
| And from their castle up on high |
| Looked down on our generation |
| But standing in the ruins of the dreams of yesterday |
| We can see it’s not so black and white |
| No need to place the blame or prove who’s right |
| Got to keep on changin' |
| Thought you had the best-laid plans |
| The moon, the tide and shifting sands |
| Left them all in danger |
| You had a wife, a family |
| The picture of stability |
| But now you’re a stranger |
| No use hangin' on to a life that’s dead and gone |
| And there’s no resurrecting |
| No point in fighting when there’s nothing to protect |
| You got to keep on changin' |
| Got to keep on changin' |
| Well, you worry about mortality |
| But I’m more concerned about gettin' free |
| From the ties that try to chain me |
| (Keep on changin', gotta keep on changin') |
| I’m the ever-changin' face |
| Offshoot of the human race |
| The past cannot restrain me |
| (Keep on changin', gotta keep on changin') |
| Like the sun, I keep on risin', got my eye on the horizon |
| The road just don’t end |
| Just when you thought you knew me, you have to think again |
| Got to keep on changin' |
| I got to keep on changin' |
| I gotta keep on changin' (Keep on changin') |
| Yeah, yeah (Gotta keep on changin') |
| Got to keep on changin' (Keep on changin', gotta keep on changin') |
| Made up my mind (Keep on changin', gotta keep on changin') |
| Not to look behind (Keep on changin') |
| What you know (Gotta keep on changin') |
| Oh (Keep on changin', gotta keep on changin') |
| (Keep on changin', gotta keep on changin') |
| Got to keep on changin' |
