The Story Keeps Changing

This song speaks to a tender, complicated moment that many caregivers and adult children quietly navigate — when a loved one begins showing signs of cognitive decline, but isn’t ready to face it. The lyrics follow the quiet dance we do to preserve their dignity: listening without correcting, gently helping without confronting. We watch the stories shift — memories scrambled, details rearranged — but we respond not with frustration, but with love. Because underneath the confusion, they’re still there. And our job is to meet them where they are, not where we wish they could stay. “The story keeps changing” becomes both a painful truth and a beautiful promise — that we’ll keep loving them, no matter how their world rewrites itself. “The Story Keeps Changing” A song for caregivers walking the quiet path of early dementia with someone they love. Genre: Folk | Mood: Compassionate, bittersweet, reflective | Key: C Major | Tempo: 72 [Verse 1] You told me it was Wednesday, But it’s Friday on the clock You swore you fed the cat today, But the cans are untouched and stocked You smiled and said you saw Aunt May, But she’s been gone a year or two I just nodded like it’s true [Verse 2] You asked me why the porch light’s on, Said you always turn it off Then blamed it on the neighbor’s kid, Or maybe on the dog I see the flicker in your eyes, Where the fog begins to form So I just say, “Let me keep you warm” [Chorus] 'Cause the story keeps changing Like clouds in the wind And I won’t be the one To say where it ends I’ll meet you wherever Your memories land And I’ll hold your hand While the story keeps changing [Verse 3] You tell me tales of summer nights That never quite took place Of people who were never there With names, I can't find a face But every thread you pull on Leads you back to something real And I just listen, let you feel [Chorus] 'Cause the story keeps changing Like leaves on the breeze And I won’t pull too hard On unraveling seams I’ll meet you wherever The moment begins And I’ll hold your hand While the story keeps changing [Bridge] You're still you, in the laughter You’re still here, in your smile I’ll walk beside your shifting path For every fading mile [Final Chorus] Yeah, the story keeps changing But love knows the way Through the silence and echoes Of yesterday I’ll meet you wherever The heart understands And I’ll hold your hand While the story keeps changing Copyright © 2025 James M.
