I been runnin' wild through my life
I never knew which way the wind was blowin'
Somehow, someway, darkness led me to your life
'Cause night after night I was makin' a scene
Broken and empty I'd shadowed my dreams.

They'll be some changes, their long overdue
They'll be some changes, of what I need to do
They'll be some changes, some changes
In my life.

Yeah, yeah, in my life.

Every turn I've made has led me down this road
My heart is weary, I feel the heavy load
Somehow, someway, darkness led me to your life
I've run I realize Lord, I'm begin' you please
I can't stand the pain, I'm down on my knees.

They'll be some changes, their long overdue
They'll be some changes, of what I need to do
They'll be some changes, some changes
In my life.

Yeah, yeah

Forget about the past
I know I'm free at last
Just listen young and old
When I feel you deep in my heart
And, down in my soul.

Yeah, yeah

(bridge)

I been runnin' wild through my life
I'm done payin' the price.

They'll be some changes, their long overdue
They'll be some changes, of what I need to do
They'll be some changes, some changes
In my life.

Yeah, yeah, in my life.

Yeah, yeah.
