For Good

I've heard it said

That people come into our lives for a reason

Bringing something we must learn

And we are led

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

[01:22.15][02:41.99][03:42.55][03:45.95][03:49.55]Because I knew you

[03:18.20]Like a comet pulled from orbit

[03:21.39]As it passes a sun

[03:24.68]Like a stream that meets a boulder

[03:28.51]Halfway through the wood

[02:35.23]Who can say if I've been changed for the better but

[02:48.64][03:53.13]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 have re-written mine

By being my friend

Like a ship blown from its mooring

By a wind off the sea

Like a seed dropped by a skybird

In a distant wood

And just to clear the air

I ask forgiveness

For the things I've done you blame me for

But then I guess we know there's blame to share

And none of it seems to matter anymore

Who can say

If I've been changed for the better but
