This Change is Everything - James Durst -

This Change is Everything

All is in flux, all is in motion
All Life's a-swim in Gaia's great ocean
From birth to decay, all clay meets erosion
All things are changing
Everything is change

All things are made of atoms and even
As one is arrivin' another is leavin'
There's no need for sorrow and no time for grievin'
'Cause all things are changing
Everything is change

REFRAIN This change is everything
This change is everything
This change is everything
Everything is change (2x)

Who knows how it works, what's mind and what's matter
Neutrinos and quarks still stir up the batter
As long as it perks I don't mind, it don't matter
I know all things are changing
Everything is change

REFRAIN This change is everything
This change is everything
This change is everything
Everything is change (2x)

Q1: "So, what is the difference between Mind and Matter?"
Q2: "Yeah, what's matter?"
A: "Never Mind."
Q3: "Then, what's Mind?"
A: "No Matter. This whole conversation is just idle chatter."

Perception of stasis is just an illusion
Imagined oasis amid the confusion
(There) 's no rational basis for such a conclusion
As all things are changing
Everything is change

REFRAIN This change is everything
This change is everything
This change is everything
Everything is change (4x)

Everything is change (5x)
