Well, I believe it is a shame
Yes, I believe it is a shame
You stopped the wind before it hit me
The stone died in the sea
You used to catch me lightly
Just fallin' like a leaf
Why can't things just stay the same?
Why can't things just stay the same
Oh, the face of love keeps changing
And when you think you've got it tamed
Your eyes will open one day
And the choppin' is gone again
I believe that it's a shame
I believe that it's a shame
But you could say that it's forever
and never comes again
But life will keep you bleeding,
standing in your way
Well, I believe something remains
I believe something remains
Cause when lovers ache together
Over many passing years
There's something deep in knowing
That's born in all their tears
And I believe something remains
Yes, I believe something remains
Oh, I believe it is a shame
Cause I believe it is a shame
Why can't things just stay the same?
Why can't things just stay the same
I believe it is a shame
And I believe something remains
