"Stay The Same" lyrics - BONOBO

A night train, midnight, bags gathered 'round my feet
Possessions, some lessened to carry with me
Heavy and soothing, like a gentle symphony
I rest my head right back upon my seat
It's hard and cold, though the best thing for me
This train is moving, but my heart is stationary

[Chorus:]
Seasons change, surely it won't be the same
I'm hoping I won't stay the same
Reasons strange, why we all must play these games

I left it with you: a note that was discreet
I made sure I put it upon the cellar door
It's hanging, hoping, will you read it while I weep?
Last time, the last time it flickers through me
So vivid, it rushes from my head down to my feet
We're laughing, joking, through a dance to my defeat

[Chorus:]
Seasons change, it'll never be the same
I'm hoping I won't stay the same
Reasons strange, why we all must play these games

[Chorus:]
Seasons change, it'll never be the same
I'm hoping I won't stay the same
Reasons strange, why we all must play these games

[Chorus:]
Seasons change, it'll never be the same
I'm hoping I won't stay the same
Reasons strange, why we all must play these games
Stays the same, stay the same
