Some Things Will Never Change

(album: Higher Ground - 1987)

There isn't much left of what used to be
To survive we've got to be strong
Everyone here's making plans for tomorrow
Yesterday's just hanging on

We've been educated, we've been to the moon
We're too fast for slow moving trains
Now a young boy's best friend is a little computer
But some things will never change

We'll keep on singing those old-fashioned love songs
For people with old-fashioned pain
The heartbreak they've had, the love that's gone bad
Some things will never change

There'll be sights in the future our eyes can't believe
And wonders our tongues can't explain
But as long as there someone like you and me
Some things will never change

We'll keep on singing those old-fashioned love songs
For people with old-fashioned pain
The heartbreak they've had, the love that's gone bad
Some things will never change
Oh we'll sing with conviction and make this prediction
Some things will never change
