Chill Out (Things Gonna Change)
Santana · Other Songs - Santana
One of these days things gonna change
You'll try not baby
After while gonna be mine, gonna be mine
One of these days
I'm old and lonely baby
Cry, crying won't be long, long
Things gonna change
Sometime, in the middle of the night
You're so long, and so long and so long
Things gonna change, things gonna change
Change, change, change, things gonna change
Further on up the road baby, things gonna change
Change, change, change, change, change, change
Change baby, you'll try not to leave
But after while gonna be, my time, my time baby
Things gonna change, change, change, change
Change, change, change, things gonna change, yes it is
Things gonna change, change, change, change
Change, change, change, change, change
Things gonna change, got the blues
Things gonna change, things gonna change
Change, change, change, change, things gonna change
