All Things Change - Ralph McTell

The bar is dressed for Christmas

With coloured lights

Renee the landlady looks so nice tonight

And the lights flickering like her smile

And she still wears her hair in the 1940s style

She prefers it that way

Though it's turned from red to grey

All things change

The only one who looks the same

Is the fairy on the Christmas tree

Big Eddie and his songs are growing old

The piano player blames his fingers

Says they're freezing cold and the tinsel hardly shines

On the faded paper chains that limply hang in lines

With the laughter in the air

That is breathed and that is shared

But people change

The only one who stays the same

Is the fairy on the Christmas tree

Outside by the wall where snails have crawled

Leaving tinsel trails shining in the moonlight pale

Lovers promising nothing's ever gonna change

The things they share breathing promises

Of cloudy vapour disappearing in the frosty Christmas air

All things change

The only one who stays the same

Is the fairy on the Christmas tree
