If I Could Help Somebody/A Change Must Come

(text & musik: Alma Badel Androzzo)

Lisa:
If I could help somebody
with my singing, singing this song
my life would not be in vain
If I could help, help somebody
with my singing, singing this song
my life would not be in vain

Titiyo:
I was born by the river,
in a little tent, just like the river
I’ve been running ever since
It’s been a long, a long time coming,
but I know a change is gonna come,
oh, yes it will

Lisa:
It’s been too hard living,
but I’m afraid to die, ’cause I don’t know
what’s up there beyond the sky
It’s been a long, a long time coming,
but I know a change is gonna come,
oh, yes it will.

kör: a change is gonna come now…

Titiyo & Lisa:
It’s been a long, a long time coming,
but I know a change is gonna come

Titiyo:
Then I go to my brother
and I say, ”Brother, help me, please”

Lisa:
But he winds up knocking me back
down on my knees again

Titiyo:
Oh, there’s been a time that I thought
I couldn’t last for long, but now I think
I’m able to carry on, it’s been a long,
long time coming, but I know
a change is gonna come

Lisa:
it’s been a long, long time coming,
but I know a change is gonna come

titiyo & lisa:
