Put my coat in the closet,
sit on the edge of your bed
you don't look like your pictures anymore

you don't look quite the same
and I don't wanna stay long, really can't stay
life awaits me


Your mother says you're doing better
doesn't look that way to me

she says you've come so far so fast
sure don't look that way to me
and I don't wanna stay long,

wish that I could stay
but life awaits me


and I can't wait for you

and our fathers have changed

and our mothers have changed
and our people have changed
and our seasons have changed

but you have not changed
and I don't know if you will ever change






Linda says she loves you,
she sends her best
along with all the rest

Bobby says he loves you,
he can't take this test
and I don't wanna stay long,

don't think I can stay
life awaits me


and I can't wait for you I can't wait

and our fathers have changed

and our mothers have changed
and our people have changed
and our seasons have changed

and my god has changed
and the seasons have changed
but you have not changed


Get my coat from the closet be back when I can
