Change lyrics

If you knew that you would die today,

If you saw the face of God and Love,

Would you change?

Would you change?

If you knew that love can break your heart,

When you're down so low you cannot fall,

Would you change?

Would you change?

How bad, how good does it need to get?

How many losses, how much regret?

What chain reaction would cause an effect?

Makes you turn around, makes you try to explain,

Makes you forgive and forget, makes you change?

Makes you change?

If you knew that you would be alone,

Knowing right, being wrong,

Would you change?

Would you change?

If you knew that you would find a truth,

That brings up pain that can't be soothed,

Would you change?

Would you change?

How bad, how good does it need to get?

How many losses, how much regret?

What chain reaction would cause an effect?

Makes you turn around, makes you try to explain,

Makes you forgive and forget, makes you change?

Makes you change?

Are you so upright you can't be bent?

If it comes to blows

Are you sure you won't be crawling?

If not for the good, why risk falling?

Why risk falling?

If everything you think you know,

Makes your life unbearable,

Would you change?

Would you change?

If you'd broken every rule and vow

And hard times come to bring you down,

Would you change?

Would you change?

If you knew that you would die today,

If you saw the face of God and Love,

Would you change?

Would you change?

Would you change?

Would you change?

If you saw the face of God and Love…
