Lyrics

IT'S JUST THE CHANGIN' OF THE GUARD, IT'S A NATURAL FACT,
EVERYONE WHO KNOWS HER SAYS IT'S TIME AGAIN
IT'S JUST THE CHANGIN OF THE GUARD, IT BOILS DOWN TO THIS ACT;
I'M OUT, HE'S IN... I'M OUT, AND HE'S IN.

SHE HAD SO MUCH MONEY, I WAS BUSTED FLAT
SHE SAT DOWN BESIDE ME AND I WONDERED ABOUT THAT
SHE ASKED ME CAN I BUY YOU A DRINK,I SAID THAT WOULD BE FINE
HOW COULD I HAVE EVER KNOWN THAT I WAS ALREADY LOVIN? ON BORROWED TIME

IT'S WAS THE CHANGIN' OF THE GUARD, IT'S A NATURAL FACT,
EVERYONE WHO KNEW HER SAID IT WAS TIME AGAIN
IT WAS THE CHANGIN OF THE GUARD, IT BOILED DOWN TO THIS ACT;
HE WAS OUT, I WAS IN... HE WAS OUT, I WAS IN.

NIGHTS TURNED INTO DAYS TOGETHER,
LOVERS INTO FRIENDS
NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THE TIMES TO COME,
NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT AN END
I SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT COMIN',
ALL THE EVIDENCE WAS CLEAR
OL' CUPIDS ARROW HAS TURNED INTO A SPEAR, OH NO

IT'S JUST THE CHANGIN' OF THE GUARD,
IT'S A NATURAL FACT,
EVERYONE WHO KNOWS HER SAYS IT'S TIME AGAIN
IT'S JUST THE CHANGIN OF THE GUARD,
IT BOILS DOWN TO THIS ACT;
I'M OUT, HE'S IN... I'M OUT, AND HE'S IN.

WISH THAT I COULD WARN HIM, LET HIM KNOW
YOU CAN'T GIVE HER YOUR HEART
HE SHOULD KNOW FROM THE START

IT'S JUST THE CHANGIN OF THE GUARD,
IT'S A NATURAL FACT
OH YOU KNOW IT HAPPENS TIME AND TIME AGAIN
IT'S JUST THE CHANGIN' OF THE GUARD,
IT BOILS DOWN TO THIS ACT
I'M OUT, HE'S IN... I'M OUT AND HE'S IN
IT'S JUST THE CHANGIN OF THE GUARD
