Everything Must Change - Shirley Horn

Everything Must Change

Everything must change

Nothing stays the same

Everyone willl change

No one stays the same

The young become the old

Mysteries do unfold

For that’s the way of time

Nothing and no one goes unchanged

There are not many things in life

You can be sure of…

Except, rain comes from the clouds

Sun light up the sky

Hummingbirds do fly

Winter turns to spring

The wounded heart will heal

But never much to soon

But everything must change

The young become the old

Mysteries do unfold

But that’s the way that time

Nothing
