Lyric of the Week (week 13)

I think Quincy Jones remade this one, it seems to be a Nina Simone original. It always touches me when I hear it and you know that I try to post something that is close to how I feel at the time. Here we go.

Everything must change
-Nina Simone

everything must change
nothing stays the same
everyone will change
no one, no one stays the same

the young become the old
and mysteries do unfold
for that's the way of time
no one, and nothing goes unchanged
there are not many things in life one can be sure of
except rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
hummingbirds fly

winter turns to spring
a wounded heart will heal
oh but never much too soon
no one, and nothing goes unchanged

The young become the old
and mysteries do unfold
for that's the way of time
no one, and nothing stays unchanged

there are not many things in life one can be sure of
except rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
hummingbirds fly

rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
hummingbirds fly

rain comes from the clouds
sun lights up the sky
hummingbirds fly

everything must change
