When You Come Along (live at Oslo)

from Heart Attack: Live at Oslo by Mercury Heart

lyrics

I’ve been waiting for a change
To come before the end of days
But as the telomeres burn low
It’s still the same old same old show

But I’ll hang on all the same
Through the sun and wind and rain
Hope’s eternal in my breast
It just struggles in the rest

I heard a change is gonna come
Some old soul song by someone
I wonder if it came along
A busting song can still be wrong

But I’ll hang on all the same
Through the sun and wind and rain
Hope is eternal in my breast
It just struggles in the rest

Impermanence is what they say
Nothing stays, the Buddhist way
Perhaps it’s karma in this case
But how to make it happen here?
But how to make it happen here?

Yes I know that things can change
I know it’s nothing very strange
I’ve seen it happen all around
Just not on this patch of ground

But I’ll hang on all the same
Through the sun and wind and rain
Hope is eternal in my breast
It just struggles in the rest

A change is gonna come
When you come along
