Black 47 - Change lyrics
I remember you back in 1992 When they were putting us down Trying to tramp us into the ground You exploded like a flame in the night With a righteous indignation Told us "everything gonna be alright" Change come slowly like the ocean But it keep on comin' nonetheless Take my hand, oh dear companion, We may not find happiness But peace and then some real contentment And a measure of social justice Oh change come slowly like the ocean But they can't stop the tide And they're never ever goin' to stop us They've got the bullets and the guns And the propaganda machine All we ever had was an impossible dream You stood tall as steel in the flaming night Said "let us have no fear The victors will be those who can the most endure Sally came to me with flames in her eyes And her long hair blowin' in the breeze She said "dry up your tears, boy, we've been down too long It's time we were up off our knees" Oh the stars in the heavens are blazin' tonight The moon she is glidin' on high And the drum roll of liberty beats in my heart As the warm winds of change blow by Don't ask me to be a slave anymore I couldn't be if I tried For the pipes scream an anthem of hope in my heart As the warm winds of change blow by She moved like a ghost through the enemy lines But her laugh was defiant and clear She kissed me hard on the mouth and said "goodbye, I'll love you forever, my dear" |
