Jewel - What You Are
#木九州制作
Im driving around town
Kinda bored with the windows rolled down
See a girl on the bus stop bench
Dressed to draw attention
Hoping everyone will stare
If she dont stand out she thinks shell disappear
Wish I could hold her, tell her, show her
What she wants is already there
A star is a star
It doesnt have to try to shine
Water will fall
A bird just knows how to fly
You dont have to tell a flower how to bloom
Or light how to fill up a room
You already are what you are
And what you are is beautiful
Heard a story the other day
Took place at the local VA
A father talking to his dying son
This was his conversation
"Its not supposed to be like this
You cant go first I cant handle it"
The boy said "Dad now dont you cry,
Remember when I was a child what you used to tell me when Id ask why?"
(Youd say) Gravity is gravity
It doesnt try to pull you down
Stone is stone
It cant help but hold its ground
The wind just blows, though you cant see
Its everywhere like Ill always be
You already are what you are
And what you are is strong enough
Look in the mirror
Now thats another story to tell
I give love to others
But I give myself hell
Id have to tell myself
"In every scene theres a perfect plan"
Everything I hoped to be
I already am
A flower is a flower
It doesnt have to try to bloom
And light is light
Just knows how to fill a room
And dark is dark
So the stars have a place to shine
The tide goes out
So it can come back another time
Goodbye makes a love so sweet
And love is love so it can teach us
We already are what we are
And what we are is beautiful
And strong enough
And good enough
And bright enough
Thank you
