Lyrics to Change:
And it's a sad picture
The final blow hits you
Somebody else gets
What you wanted
It can't end
You know it's all the same
Another time and place
Repeating history
And you're getting sick of it
But I believe
In whatever you do
And I'll do anything
To see it through
Chorus:
Because these
Things will change
We can feel it now
These walls
That they put up
To hold us back
Will fall down
It's a revolution
The time will come
For us to finally win
And we'll sing hallelujah
We'll sing hallelujah
Oh
So we've been
Out numbered
Raided and out cornered
It's hard to fight
When the
fight ain't fair
We're getting
Stronger now
Find things
They never found
They might be bigger
But we're faster
And never scared
We can walk away
say, 'We don't need this'
But there's something in your eyes
(that) says we can beat this
Chorus:
Because these
Things will change
We can feel it now
These walls
That they put up
To hold us back
Will fall down
It's a revolution
The time will come
For us to finally win
And we'll sing hallelujah
We'll sing hallelujah
Oh
Tonight we'll stand
and get off our knees
Fight for what we've
Worked for all these years
And the battle was long
It's the fight of our lives
And we'll stand up
Champions tonight
It was the night things changed
Can see it now
These walls that they
put up to hold us back
fell down
It's a revolution
Throw your hands up
Cause we never gave in
And we'll sing hallelujah
We sang hallelujah
Hallelujah




Description:
"Change" is a song performed by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. Swift self-penned the song and co-produced it alongside Nathan Chapman. The song was released on August 8, 2008, as a promotional single from Swift's second studio album, Fearless (2008), with all proceeds being donated to the United States Olympic team. "Change" was written about Swift's hopes and aspirations in regards to succeeding, although being signed to the smallest record label in Nashville, Tennessee. The track was later chosen as one of the themes for the 2008 Summer Olympics and was eventually included on the AT&T Team USA Soundtrack. "Change" is musically pop rock and uses divergent string instruments. Lyrically, it speaks of overcoming obstacles and achieving victory.
It received mixed reviews from music critics and was able to peak at number ten on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Swift's first song to reach the top ten on the chart. The music video for "Change" was directed by Shawn Robbins and features Swift performing with a band in a ballroom. An alternate version of the video features footage of the United States Olympic team at the 2008 Summer Olympics. The song was performed during Swift's first headlining tour, the Fearless Tour in 2009.
