"Change the world" by Eric Clapton

The reason why I had these lyrics was I had nothing to chose from when I did this project, It didn't matter what song I did, EVERY song has to have something to connect to.
The song name of,"change the world"by Eric Clapton reminds me of what some of the People say In those elections to become a president. It doesn't realate to my life really, but reminds me of where the society I live In. Everybody says,"Change the world", most want to do that by being a leader and helping people. But what the lyrics say Is "Pulling down a star and making a wish and picking a queen to rule a kingdom". It Reminds me of a little of Small steps, how Kaira felt of Theodore. Like when Kaira DeLeon sent Theodore that weird letter, the lyrics remind me of the words In that letter. The thing I learned from this song by just reading the words Is that most Musicians write songs about life,love, and troubles

"I can change the world,I would be the sunlight in your universe.You would think my love was really something good,Baby if I could change the world.Baby if I could change the world."He sings positive saying he's the sunlight of the universe to 1 person. And he wants to change the world In many diffderent ways to make It better.

If I can reach the stars,Pull one down for you,Shine it on my heartSo you could see the truth:
That this love I have insideIs everything it seems.But for now I findIt's only in my dreams.
And I can change the world,I will be the sunlight in your universe.You would think my love was really something good,Baby if I could change the world.
And if I could be king,Even for a day,I'd take you as my queen;I'd have it no other way.
And our love would ruleThis kingdom we had made.Till then I'd be a fool,Wishing for the day...
That I can change the world,I would be the sunlight in your universe.You would think my love was really something good,Baby if I could change the world.Baby if I could change the world.
I could change the world,I would be the sunlight in your universe.You would think my love was really something good,Baby if I could change the world.Baby if I could change the world.Baby if I could change the world.
