I haven't changed a thing,
The moon is still the same!
I'm waiting for your ring,
I hope it's not in vain!
Darling, the thought of you still clings to me,
That's why I haven't changed a thing!
I haven't wound the clock,
The hours come no more!
I'm waiting for your knock,
The latch is off the door!
Darling, the sunshine you would bring to me,
That's why I haven't changed a thing!
The slippers that you wore
Remind me more and more
Of the happiness you and I once knew.
Your robe now drapes the chair
As if you're sitting there,
With your arms around me the way you used to do.
I haven't changed a thing,
My heart is still the same!
Let's have another fling,
There's no need to explain!
Darling, the years with you still cling to me,
That's why I haven't changed a thing!
I haven't changed a thing,
My heart is still the same!
Let's have another fling,
There's no need to explain!
Darling, the years with you still cling to me,
That's why I haven't changed a thing,
That's why I haven't changed a thing!
