A Change is Gonna Come - Seal

I was born by the river
In a little tent
And just like the river
I've been running ever since
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh, yes it is

It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it will

I go to the movies
And I go downtown
Somebody keeps telling me
"Don't hang around"
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Oh yes it will

So now I go to my brother
And I say "Brother help me please"
But somehow he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees

Oh, there were times I thought
I wouldn't last for long
Now I think I'm able
Able to carry on
It's been a long, long time coming
But I know a change is gonna come
Yes it will
I know a change is gonna come
I said I know

A change is gonna come, yeah
A change is gonna come, now, oh
A change is gonna come, I see it now, yeah
Oh my, yeah
I said a change, yeah, is gonna come.
