I've heard it said, That people come into our lives For a reason Bringing something we must learn. And we are lead to those Who help us most to grow if we let them. And we help them in return. Well, I don't know if I believe that's true But I know I'm who I am today Because I knew you.
Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun, Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood. Who can say if I've been changed for the better But because I knew you. I have been changed for good.
It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime. So, let me say before we part: So much of me Is made of what I learned from you. You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart. And now whatever way our stories end I know you'll have rewritten mine By being my friend.
Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea. Like a seed dropped by a sky bird In a distant wood. Who can say if I've been changed for the better But because I knew you... Because I knew you... I have been changed for good.
And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the things I've done, You blamed me for.
But then, I guess, We know there's blame to share.
And none of it seems to matter anymore. Like a comet pulled from orbit (Like a ship blown from its mooring) As it passes a sun. (By a wind off the sea) Like a stream that meets a boulder (Like a seed dropped by bird) Halfway through the wood. (In the wood) Who can say if I've been changed for the better. I do believe I have been changed for the better.
And because I knew you... Because I knew you... Because I knew you I have been changed... For good.

I've heard it said,
That people come into our lives
For a reason
Bringing something we must learn.
And we are lead to those
Who help us most to grow if we let them.
And we help them in return.
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you.
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun,
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood.
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
But because I knew you.
I have been changed for good.
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime.
So, let me say before we part:
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you.
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart.
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you'll have rewritten mine
By being my friend.
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea.
Like a seed dropped by a sky bird
In a distant wood.
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
But because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good.
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done,
You blamed me for.
But then, I guess,
We know there's blame to share.
And none of it seems to matter anymore.
Like a comet pulled from orbit

(In the wood)
Who can say if I've been changed for the better.
I do believe I have been changed for the better.
And because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
Because I knew you
I have been changed...
For good.
