Change, like the sky, like the leaves, like a butterfly
Would you live forever and never die
While everything around passes?
Would you smile forever and never cry
While everything you know passes?
Death, like a door to a place we've never been before
Death, like space, the deep sea, a suitcase
Would you stare forever at the sun
Never watch the moon rising?
Would you walk forever in the light
To never learn the secret of the quiet night?
Still, like a stone, like a hill, like home
Still, what I find, is you were always on my mind
Could I feel happy for you
When I hear you talk with her like we used to?
Could I set everything free
When I watch you holding her the way you once held me?
Change, like the sky, like the leaves, like a butterfly
Death, like a door to a place we've never been before
Would you live forever and never die
While everything around passes?
Would you smile forever and never cry?
Love the album art
They really seem to be into birds and dinosaurs.
The lyrics on this track, while simple on their surface, certainly are deep and really ask some questions that require some reflection...love that...
That is what makes this piece, not the voice or instruments. The question that most ignore but that must eventually be answered

The more I hear this one, the more I like it.
Same here. And I'm on a 9 already ...
i wonder if dylan likes this band.
A thoughtful evocative track. Started out, I didn't like it, sounds like 100s of others. But...it grows on you. I was drawn to her voice and the poetry. Nice.
Dunno how anyone can give a 1 score for any of this band's songs, unless they have a vendetta?
...Who'd they kill?
No vendetta - this song moves me, just not in a positive way. That's part of the beauty of music - it's totally subjective. Some songs make me want to dance in my chair every time...others (like this one) for whatever reason, make me want to run out of the room screaming
I don't mean offense to those that do like it - to each their own!
But Big Thief and Jens Lekman will ALWAYS be the musical equivalent of fingernails on a chalkboard to this RP fan!!!
GOD?
Gen X (me) can finally chill......
Modern Music Is Wonderful (alt j)
Nice tune though. Singer can bring it, furshur.

Thanks for that. It made me stop and read them properly as the song was playing, and you couldn't be more right!

My poor ears...
to each their own - this one doesn't do it for me. Vocal style feels affected, and the whole theme of "change" just feels a little overwrought to me. It tries to be really deep, which only makes it worse. >PSD
Still love RP!

Could be Johnny Cash, as a woman, on a beach, but I hear a young Emmy Lou Harris in Brooklyn.
Totally thought this was Emmylou.

yes, very Emmy Lou-ish

Solid 9.
