A Change Is Gonna Come Lyrics

Terence Trent D'arby A Change Is Gonna Come

I was born by the river in a little tent Oh and just like the river I been a runnin' ever since It's been a long, a long time coming but I know A change gon' come oh yes it will It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die Cuz I don't know what's up there beyond the sky It's been a long, a long time coming but I know A change gon' come oh yes it will

I go to the movie, and I go downtown Somebody keep tellin me "don't hang around" It's been a long, a long time coming, but i know A change gon' come oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother And I say "brother, help me please" But he winds up knocking me Back down on my knees There been times that I thought I wouldn't last for long Now think I'm able to carry on It's been a long, along time coming but I know A change gon' come, oh yes it will
