World doesn’t care much for nicotine anymore
This room tonight should be thick with smoke
Guy at the piano is tickling the ivories
Soul chanteuse sure nuff going for broke
Singing “You’ve Changed”
Under a gossamer spotlight, can’t take my eyes away
Ebony princess glowing, like an ember in the dark
Holding the whole room in the palm of her hand
She’s taken possession of every man’s heart
Singing “You’ve Changed”
Coming straight from her soul
Words and music seem to breathe
Deepest depths of her soul
Could she be singing to me, believe
Giving it all, caressing each word, they come alive
Laying her hopes and fears out on the line
Touching dark corners of the melody
In a song born long before her time
Singing “You’ve Changed”
