So he's going across to London
But she never crossed his mind
Eyes look to the future

But don't see what he left behind
She can't take it any longer
Now she's holding on for dear, dear life

So you should know that you got to let him go
Then it's gonna be alright


[Chorus]
Outer change is for the better
And we all go different ways

But we all need something, oh, to hold
But if change is what you're after
Then she won't get in your way

But they all need something, oh, to hold

So she laughs at all the promises

And she smiles at what she's got
Hoping no one notices
That she's something that she's not

Now her thoughts are getting clouded
By the crown that's on her head
But I can't stay if you're drifting away

Oh, you're trying instead

[Chorus]

Outer change is for the better
And we all go different ways
But we all need something, oh, to hold

But if change is what you're after
Then she won't get in your way
But they all need something, oh, to hold


To hold
Something, oh, to hold


[Chorus]
Outer change is for the better

And we all go different ways
But we all need something, oh, to hold
But if change is what you're after

Then she won't get in your way
But they all need something, oh, to hold


Something, oh, to hold, yeah
Something, oh, to hold
