A Change Is Gonna Come - Ben Sollee

Well, it’s dark in the city

I’ve lost my pride

The lights in the streets hide the stars from my eyes

It’s been a long, long time coming

But I know that change is gonna come

And it’s too hard living

But I’m afraid to die

Cause I don’t know what’s up there

Just beyond the sky

It’s been a long, long time coming

But I know that change is gonna come

And I miss my family

My little girl

She is my princess

I’d give her the world

It’s been a long, long time coming

But I know that change is gonna come

I just need some comfort

Some kind of belief

That this war we’re fighting

Can really bring some peace

There’s no rhyme nor reason

Or sweet melody

More and more weapons

Mean less security

It’s been a long, long time coming

But I know that change is gonna come

And I’ve tried to find it

Some better place

Where having the biggest gun

Ain’t some kind of race

It’s been a long, long time coming

But I know that change is gonna come

There’s been times I thought

I couldn’t last for long

But now I think I’m able

To carry on

It’s been a long, long time coming

But I know that change is gonna come

It’s been a long, long time coming

But I know that change is gonna come

Yes, a change is gonna come
