train entering the city
i lost myself and never came back
took a trip ’round the world and never came back
black silhouettes , crisscrossed tracks , never came back

forever changed
forever changed

you might think i’m frivolous , uncaring and cold
you might think i’m empty , depends on your point of view
society andy who paints and records them
the high and the low , never turn back

forever changed
forever changed
forever changed
forever changed

got to get to the city , get a job
got to get some work to see me through
my old life’s behind , i see it receding
my life’s disappearing , disappearing from view

hong kong and i was changed
burma , thailand and i was changed
a few good friends to see me through
henry and brigid to see me through
only art to see me through
only heart to see me through
my old life’s disappearing , disappearing from view

forever changed
forever changed
i was forever changed
