C Em

You gave me all the love that's necessary

when two people try to find themselves,

C Em

love beyond all common sense

based on some sweet permanence

with only one

Dm G C

and baby I thought I needed you

in a changing world

Dm G C

baby I thought I needed you

Wanting some to give away,

important things I had to say

for many days,

C Em

suddenly you came along

helped me share my perfect song

in perfect ways,

Dm G C

and baby I thought I needed you

in a changing world,

Dm G C

I thought I needed you

The closer that we drew together

made our love seem like forever,

naturally,

C Em

and then I heard you sing the song

that I was singing all along

and failed to see,

baby,

G C

the thing that I most fear

Em Dm

in a changing world:

G Ab C# G

I saw you disappear

Ab C#

G C

Empty now and silently

I face your struggle to be free

to be on your own,

C Em

to grow so very carefully

and suffer necessarily

for what I've done

Dm G C

to baby who wants to know the thing

in a changing world

Dm G C

to baby who's learning how to sing

C Em Dm G C Em Dm G C
