[Verse 1] You were never supposed to be a flash in the pan when we started out It always seems to me, you were gonna be the one I'd write home about 'Til we started to unravel All the schedules and the travel [Chorus] Somebody tell me why people change Somebody tell me why nobody stays the same From where we started out to where we are now It's just like night and day Somebody tell me why people change [Verse 2] I never thought the fire would go out But the ashes are proof we felt flames You were the one beyond a shadow of a doubt, we even shared a last name Didn't we make big deals out of nothing? And let nothing turn into something [Chorus] Somebody tell me why people change Somebody tell me why nobody stays the same From where we started out to where we are now It's just like night and day Somebody tell me why people change [Bridge] Thought we made it through the winter, the summer, the fame We don't have anything or anyone to blame [Chorus] Somebody tell me why people change Somebody tell me why nobody stays the same Where we started out, where we are now Just like night and day Somebody tell me why people change Somebody tell me why people change Somebody tell me why people change
