G: I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
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
Because I knew you
Like a comet pulled from orbit
C: As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
C: Half way through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
Because I knew you
C: I have been changed
For good
E: 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
C: By being my friend
Like a ship blown from it's mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed drop by a sky bird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
Because I knew you
Because I knew you
I have been changed for good
E: And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
C: For the things I've done you blame me for
G: But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share
C: And none of it seems to matter anymore!
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Half way through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
I do believe I have been changed for the better
Because I knew you
Because I knew you
Because I knew you
I have been changed
For good
