Go, go, go, the traffic builds into a frenzy No, no, no, my blood beat rises with the tension Why, why, why, we're always searching for a reason So, so, so, there must be more than just a pension She hangs the washing on the line For the second time this week He looks at her and feels a loss in his life In his life |
|
Thinks, I need to, to break out To release my aching soul True passion at my age It's the only thing I know, I know |
|
Slow, slow, slow, each day blends dimly to another Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday Grow, grow, grow, this disenchantment of each other Why, why, why, the ghost of youth betrays it's uses We hang ourselves on our own self constructed nooses He leaves work earlier today For a secret rendezvous She tries to phone him just to say, I need you I need you |
|
Thinks, I need to, to break out This romance has gone so wrong True passion at my age It's the only thing I want, I want |

There's a note upon the table It said goodbye Goodbye |

Another personal favourite, and a real belter of a live track. So called as it was a follow on from Change I. Both songs were carried over from the days of Damascus, and both concern themselves with growing old, and relationships that don't always measure up to what we expect.
In the later years of ARK, the band revamped Change I and were considering re-recording. It would have been good to have both tracks on one record together.
