[Verse 1]
As you watch from your house on the hill
World keeps spinning around you, you're standing still
And a thought never enters your mind
Something happened once in my life
A fading picture of you that's so hard to describe
I've been where the sun never shines
[Chorus]
That's alright, there's a change in the story
That's alright, there's a change in the plan
A twist in the tale
[Verse 2]
Face in the mirror, head in the clouds
Hanging on to a dream that you can't do without
As it drops like a stone without trace
Give what you want, take what you need
Squeezing so hard, there's no room to breathe
And your flavour has fallen from grace
[Chorus]
It's alright, there's a change in the story
That's alright, there's a change in the plan
A twist in the tale
[Bridge]
I saw you dancing
Dancing on air
You were lost in the in the starlight
Ooh, no one but me really cared
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Every question turns out a lie
Can't you swallow the truth for once in your life
I loved you but don't ask me why
[Outro]
That's alright, there's a change in the story
That's alright, there's a change in the plan
That's alright, there's a change in the story
That's alright, there's a change in the plan
A twist in the tale
Ha!
