Benson, George - Everything Must Change Lyrics
Everyone will change
Everything will change
Everything must change
Nothing stays the same (no, no)
Nothing stays the same
The young become the old
Mysteries do unfold
Cause that's the way of time
Nothing and no one goes unchanged
There are not many things in life
You can be sure of
Except rain comes from the clouds
And hummingbirds do fly
Winter turns to spring
A wounded heart will heal (yes it will)
But never much too soon
Everything must change
The young become the old
Mysteries do unfold
Cause that's the way of time
Nothing and no one goes unchanged
There are not many things in life
You can be sure of
Except rain comes from the clouds
And sun lights up the sky
And hummingbirds do fly
(Nothing stays the same)
There are not many things in life
You can be sure of
Except rain comes from the clouds
And sun lights up the sky
And hummingbirds do fly

Benson, George Everything Must Change Comments
memories-mum dancing around to this beautiful song -all gone nothing remains the same-emotions deep
What part was the blue devils thingy?
Great song
I was in my late teens when I bought this album to play on my spanking new stereo system . Can't believe it's been more than four decades.
blue devils metamorph
The Benson album IN FLIGHT is one of the bests ever and one of my favourite ones.
Really liked this song when it first came out and still do- love the lyrics- sums up life. Love the instruments but especially the violin section towards the end on the recording.
Yeah,.. even Benson's nose changed.
Everything must change, but not this esquitive performance of George Benson. A treasure
I heard this sound in 1977 when I was young and now again in 2019 when I am old
Saw him in concert in Vegas with a wonderful guy. Thanks Ed J. Sr.
He is one of the best jazz guitarists in the world. Saw him in the 80’s. Loved him, love him now.
When George started with Stanly Clark i knew his song had many meanings and change that was to come, especially after coming home from Viet Nam. He is one of a kind of special performers of my days. Still no one brings this sound around in todays music. He is genuine and sold in listen music of yesterday. Having the albums he put out still and my record player still spins his recordings. A true artist of music and still the sound brings memories to my era. Keep on breezing. Peace be the Journey George.
Thank You for Your service Rick!
@Kendahle Lanier thank you
When i sing this song on stage i just love the guality of the piano solo
Blue devilsss😩
1st time I heard this. The arrangement and flow is genius. If you're not careful a perfect invitation for a tear or 2.
Seasons change in due time.
“And hummingbirds do fly.” Glad that won’t change.
The Universe replenishes!

Still listening to this in 2019
Ray robinsons favorite song :D
In 1977, as a sophomore in high school, I would sit listening to this song over and over again for hours. Looking back, I wonder what was going on inside of me that drew me to these lyrics and caused me to latch on to such a mature song.
Tonight my daughter has fallen asleep on the other side of my bed. She looks so peaceful. This will be last time I'll see her this way. The mommy-daughter moments end tonight. Tomorrow she makes her career decision that will take her far away. She's 18.
Everyone will change. Everything must change. I was young. I've become old.
I can be sure of one thing -- and it is far beyond even the rhythm of nature.
He is the maker of nature.
The Lord. He is changeless.
His promises do not change.
His love for me and for her will never change.
He will usher us through this separation.
What now Lord?
What awaits my daughter?
This change sets the course for the rest of her life.
What of me? I have been battered and torn by resisting the inevitable. Can't we cuddle like this just a little while longer?
In the whirlwinds, I will keep my eyes fixed on you, Lord.
You are Changeless.
I will pray for my girl-turned-young woman.
With all of the loved stored up in my heart, it would be a ceremony act to not teach her this fact of life.
In fact, it may be the greatest gift I can offer her. The encouragement and support to embrace change.
The sights, flavors, and texture, whether smooth or bitter are what reveal the depths of the beauty of life, who we are and how we have arrived at where we are today and any stage of life?
Knowing that my daughter and I rest in the Changeless hands of the Almighty God, Christ Jesus, life and it's tumultuous changes become the amusement rides on our earthly playground.
We are free to play knowing that nothing and no change has the power to steal our Peace.
Our peace is promised to last for eternity.
music & words ...
Life’s like a book. Everyday is a page as we live and move through chapters. Change is inevitable. Enjoy life. Soon it will end for us all. Live long and live well my friends. 😊
What a wonderful time in life when artist sang these songs with meanings and not naked dancers bouncing around.
Randy Crawford did it best. But this is beautiful.
I was groovin' on George Benson when he was strictly a jazz instrumentalist, a guitarist talented (and brave) enough to appear on the scene after Wes Montgomery. One of his first groups had a front-line of himself and baritone saxophonist Ronnie Cuber, who I heard later at UW-Madison, when Maynard came through. Today the scene has changed to the degree that instrumental music let alone "jazz" no longer matters to people. It may have died with Coltrane in 1967 or Ellington in 1974 or with Bill Evans in 1980 or with Miles and everyone else circa 1990 (incl. Sonny Stitt and Jug, Lockjaw and Dexter, Al Cohn and Zoot Sims, Stan Getz and Dizzy Gillespie). Anyway, it was a beautiful if challenging (for listeners as well as musicians) art form that had evolved from a folk form (the 12-bar blues) with Louis in the 1920s. In retrospect, its duration was an all-too-brief flaming star. But with all the recordings that remain, perhaps like European classical music it will linger for a while longer as America's claasical African-American art form. I know I couldn't get through a day without listening to Hank Mobley.
Bernard Igner the composer and original singer of "Everything must change" ........what a talent!!
Stay Strong! Great song. Thanks for uploading. Check out my "Positive Music Vibes Radio" channel. Subscribe, shuffle, and enjoy! The message is in the music.
What will NEVER Change is My Love for You...
This song continues to resonate with me over time. So many beautiful versions!
I'm will listen to all of this music from to be a to Z
Its so marvelus !!! Thx George 😘
Talented, talented guy. My goodness. Had a young friend tell me yrs. ago about a fantastic instrumentalist... who could really SING. That player was George Benson. My friend was more than right.
Loved it as soon as I heard the first composition by Quincy Jones
I am speechless....the music...the voice...the voice...the voice...the voice
Moving from vocals, to guitar and ad lib to beautiful piano and back to vocals wow!
hearing this song at 14 in 1977, had no appreciation...now at 56, having lost so many including Mamma, many disappointments, heartbreaks, etc, do understand richly...
★★★★★★★★★★
He sounds like Stevie Wonder.
Just got my final divorce papers today,and I am back to this tune which has seen me in rough waters before and pulled me ashore,thank you my old friend ♡
Everything must change,
Nothing stays the same.
Everyone must change
Nothing stays the same.
The young become the old,
Mysteries do unfold.
'Cause that's the way of time
Nothing and no one goes unchanged.
There are not many things
In life you can be sure of.
Except
Rain comes from the clouds,
And sun lights up the sky,
And humming birds do fly.
Winter turns to spring.
Wounded heart will heal.
Never much too soon
Everything must change
The young become the old,
Mysteries do unfold.
'Cause that's the way of time
Nothing and no one goes unchanged.
There are not many things
In life you can be sure of.
Except
Rain comes from the clouds,
And sun lights up the sky,
And humming birds do fly.

The best sound that brings back GREAT memories from the buckeye state
👍🏿👍👍🏾♥️
🇫🇷PARIS ! 2019
Paris sounds great
Heard this at the time and still love it.
I genuinely want solidarity within us. Don't let the internet Negativity feed you & destroy what should be. We are ONE, genuine kind and beyond reproach.
I remember hearing this song & it means more now than ever. I wish so much from history never happened (I. e., slavery). We need to come together through intelligent & forgiveness. Forgiveness, let's move forward with love and the desire to be better together; we all must CHANGE. I love you all unconditionally.
Love me some George Benson. This is the best version of the song.
Always loved this masterpiece of a beautiful song brings me to tears everything has change in life
A beautiful song to listen to
Top 👏👏👏👏👏👏
👍🏿👍🏾👍♥️
PARIS ! 2018
I bought the original album with this song on it back in my early 20's and I loved it back then. I'm 61 years old now and I still love it even now...Some things don't change, my love for George Benson and his music...Love it love it...
George BBad that all 👌
Always come back to the classic, listen to the rift of the guitar & piano, simply, class & soul. One thing is certain, Rain comes from the clouds, sunlight comes from above, & hummingbirds do fly... I truly love George Benson for what he gave me.
Listen to the beauty and real insight.. I adore George Bensons' ability to write, create music and find our souls desire to be better. Everything must change, everyone must change, there is so much heart in these lyrics. Let's be good to one another. We MUST get beyond this divide
BLUE DEVILS 2017!

His voice and his fingers sing in harmony and complete joy. Love this giant of an artist; simply one of the best!
And amid the ashes, where trees once stood tall and proud, sprouts new life...and I am young once again...as it was with this music and I before!
uwielbiam
Perhaps the best lyrics and meaning of all songs ever, parents you’ll get the meaning in time. Best & Love. MC
Such is a constant-everything must change !
Blue Devils brought me here.
Pour DELPHINE ...
This song, a part of my youth. I was so exciting to listen George Benson: a great voice, a gift to listen him today. How to forget this? Impossible, of course.
Some of us don't get a full life how unfair for those!
Best music ever made🎼🎵🎶🎙🎚🎹🎸🎷🎺🎻🥁
Morrissey and Mullen do a great version of this.It's on their album 'Up'
Thank you!

I bought this album back in the 1970's...I'd listen to this marvelous song with my headphones on so I can hear all the violins, the guitar solo, and Mr. Benson's mellow voice.
"The young becomes the old, mysteries do unfold." so profound, but true.
