Snoopy Come Home "It Changes"

"There must be millions of people all over the world who never get any love letters . . . I could be their leader."

Charlie Brown

Just when you think that you know where you stand,

You've got the world in your hands.

Just when you're sure of a dream that you've planned,

That's when the scenery changes.

It changes.

Just when you think that you know all the facts,

You hold the whole ball of wax.

You've got it made you can start to relax,

That's when your world rearranges.

It changes.

Someone that you really cared about,

Someone that you couldn't live without,

Severs the ties.

All at once, you're all alone and scared,

All the happy hellos that you shared,

Change to goodbyes.

Why must we pay for hellos that we say?

Pay when we sigh an adieu.

Just when you're sure and you're safe and secure,

That's when it happens to you.

It changes.

Why, oh, why?
