Much Change Too Soon

Much change too soon
Under the sign of the cross, time moves
Indulge me
Will you protect me?

Let's swim out to the past
And drown in moments that last
Will I be beautiful to you?
Will you save me?
Will you protect me?

Come to the water's edge
Where you can draw your circles 'round me
Around me

Much change too soon
Even the dog who has changed, had you
Indulge me
Will you protect me?

From the passing of time
Let all our years pour like wine
Will I be beautiful to you?
So then when we stand together three decades on
Will you breathe your life into me?

Under the eyes of heaven
Can we make time stand still?
The evergreen's fading
As time turns her pages
Everything's changing but me
Me

Is it always the same?
There's nothing left but remains
Still, will I be beautiful to you?
Indulge me
Oh, protect me

I know there's always a risk
Time has a deadly French kiss
So come to the water's edge
Where you can draw your circles 'round me
Around me

Much change too soon
I often wonder why it's so
Watch over me
Stay the years with me

Oh, come to my water's edge
Will you come to my water's edge?
Much change too soon
Much change
Oh, come too soon
