Adam Lambert - Pre-Idol

I was born by the river in a little tent
and just like that 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

It´s been too hard living but I´m afraid to die
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

I go to the movie
and i go down town
everybody keep telling me don´t you come around
it´s been a long , a long time coming
but i know a change is gonna come , oh yes it will

Then i go , go to my brother
and i say "brother help me please"
and he just winds up knocking me down
back down on me knees

There been times when i thought
i wouldn´t last for too long
but now i know that i , i , i can carry on
it´s been a long , a long time comming
but i know my change is gonna come
oh , oh ,.....
gonna come , gonna come , oh ,oh ,.......
