[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh
[Verse 1]
There's cups in the lake, and heat from the beam
Rising seas, and a world on fire
Sun shines, so we draw the blinds
Someone chuckles from the back of a fire, and now
Too late to go outside
There's money in a pocket, but it sure ain't mine
Some days I'm doing fine
Most I'm losing my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
And I can't take it
This ever-changing, spinning world
But maybe I can make it
If we plant seeds in the dirt
[Chorus]
I think I need a change of scene
I think I need to change my life
Thank god our love is evergreen
The only thing that never, the only thing that never
Says a word it doesn't mean
Makes me feel like I'm alive
Thank god our love is evergreen
The only thing that never, the only thing that never dies
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh
[Verse 2]
There's a flood in the south, and a kid so high
He can't remember how to ride his bike
Moon shines on a silver dime
But I picked it up, so I guess it's mine
Painted grass, and smog in the sky
But can I just kiss that teardrop in your eye?
Some days you're doing fine
Most you're losing your mind
[Chorus]
I think I need a change of scene
I think I need to change my life
Thank god our love is evergreen
The only thing that never, the only thing that never
Says a word it doesn't mean
Makes me feel like I'm alive
Thank god our love is evergreen
The only thing that never, the only thing that never dies
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh
[Outro]
And I can't take it
This ever-changing, spinning world
But maybe I can make it
If we plant seeds in the dirt
