Lou Reed – Forever Changed lyrics
Train entering the city
I lost myself and never came back
Took a trip around the world and never came back
Black silhouettes, crisscrossed tracks, never came back

Forever changed
Forever changed

You might think I'm frivolous, uncaring and cold
You might think I'm empty, depends on your point of view
Society Andy who paints and records them
The high and the low, never turn back

Forever changed
Forever changed
Forever changed
Forever changed

Got to get to the city, get a job
Got to get some work to see me through
My old life's behind, I see it receding
My life's disappearing, disappearing from view

Hong Kong and I was changed
Burma, Thailand and I was changed
A few good friends to see me through
Henry and Brigid to see me through
Only art to see me through
Only heart to see me through
My old life's disappearing, disappearing from view

Forever changed
Forever changed
I was forever changed
