I have been there but I haven't done that
I have seen it but haven't wised up
And nothing I do, nothing I say  can change it
Do I want it to change?

You, you're so lucky
You can change your colors every time you want to refresh
your life
And somehow you fit
And I try so hard
And still I try but I can't change it
Do I want it to change?

And every time I wonder how it feels to be you
To feel like I could do anything I want
To know how it's done
But maybe I'm too young to understand
How do you do it?

One more time could you show me
I wonder who's more naive - me or you
You're proud you are optimistic , living so loud
Just keep on smiling , like it helps
And I try to smile
But every time I start to cry
Because I can change it
Do I want it to change?

I have been there but I haven't done that
I have seen it but haven't wised up
And somehow you fit, Just keep on smiling
Got to be optimistic - you know we all die at the end
And nothing I do
Nothing I say can change it
Do I want it to change?
