Discover the story of the song > Changeling – Alison Moyet

The lyrics describe a car ride with the protagonist and her partner. They are stuck in traffic and the protagonist is frustrated, wondering how anyone can get to work like this. She remembers when she was a child and everything seemed simple and unchanging. She and her partner try to move forward, hoping for something better, but she feels like she is losing her grip on him. Throughout the song, she is searching for someone who can bring her back to that feeling of stability and nostalgia.
