Changing of the Guard

I made a promise to a stranger To be a perfect kind of slave Before the century's dead, you'll get it back, is what she said, Because you gave it all away Do you know how much I love my mother And I wear my father's father's hat It fill my head with softness, I am the keeper of this Safe haven that I always have There is a passage to a perfect place There is a changing of the guard but I keep the same face There is a changing of the guard but you misunderstood I will not beg you, it does me no good You see I'm learning how to listen To different frequencies of sound Sometimes they're high up in the mountains Sometimes they're way down underground You know the present holds the picture It comes full circle like a wave I saw this written in the scriptures I saw this written in your face There is a passage to a perfect place There is a changing of the guard but I keep the same face There is a changing of the guard but you misunderstood I will not beg you, it does me no good You know I'm always changing colours Sometimes yellow often blue But I'm grateful for the journey Because it brought me round to you
