a celebration of life, love and humanity…

just stumbled upon this song while sifting through mp3s… love the song! not only the lyrics, but also the hopeful spirit it conveys… that despite the fleeting realities in life, not everything necessarily has to change… try to find time to listen to it… very uplifting…

"It Don’t Have To Change"
(feat. The Stephens Family)

Oh do you remember (ooh)
When the family was everything? (ooh)
Oh do you remember? (ooh)
It was so long ago and so much has changed (ooh)
I wanna go back (go back…ooh)
Wanna go back to those simple days (ooh)
I wanna go back (go back…ooh)
But now we’ve grown and gone our separate ways (aah)

Times is hard (times is hard)
And things are a changin’
I pray to God
That we can remain the same
All I’m trying to say is our love don’t have to change
No it don’t have to change

Do you remember (ooh)
Back at Grannie’s house on Christmas Day? (ooh)
Help me sing… Do you remember (ooh)
How we’d gather ’round and sing all day? (ooh)
I wanna go back (go back…ooh)
To playing basketball and football games I wanna go back (go back…ooh)
To yesterday but it’s not the same

Times is hard (times is hard)
And things are a changin’
I pray to God That we can remain the same
All I’m trying to say is our love don’t have to change
No it don’t have to change

Times is hard (times is hard)
And things are a changin’
So I pray to God
That we can remain the same
All I’m trying to say is our love don’t have to change
No it don’t have to change
