forever changed

close your eyes and visualize

that day in spring

the moment when i met you

from the start down in my heart

i knew for sure i never would forget you

now i see what i used to be

i'll never be again

i remain forever changed

you touched my hand and life began

as i stood there staring at the manger

time stood still when you revealed

that tender smile to a perfect stranger

now i see what i used to be

i'll never be again

i remain forever changed

you took hold of a wandering soul

and gave this heart a home

all that's left of the man i knew

thanks to you is gone

all these years and you're still here

like a rock standing by and steady

for what its worth when i leave this earth

because of you i know that i'll be ready

now i see what i used to be

i'll never be again

i remain forever changed

i remain forever changed

forever changed
