Sail Away the Musical - This Is a Changing World Lyrics


This is a changing world, my dear,
New songs are sung—new stars appear,
Though we grow older year by year
Our hearts can still be gay.
Young love at best is a passing phase,
Charming and foolish and blind,
There may be happier, wiser days
When youth is far behind.
Where are the snows of yesteryear
When Winter's done and Spring is near?
No regrets are worth a tear,
We're living in a changing world, my dear.

The world was young
So many, many years ago,
The passsage of time must show
Some traces of change,
Love songs once sung,
Much laughter, many tears
Have echoed down the years,
The past is old and strange.

This is a changing world, my dear,
New dreams are dreamed,
New dawns appear,
Passion's a feckless cavlier
Who loves and rides away,
Time will persuade you laugh at grief
Time is your tenderest friend,
Life may be lonely and joy be brief,
But everything must end.
Love is a charming souvenir,
When days is done and night draws near
No regrets are worth a tear
We're living in a changing world, my dear.
