What You Are - Jewel

[00:16.411]I'm driving around town
[00:19.154]Kinda bored with the windows rolled down
[00:22.161]See a girl on the bus stop bench
[00:24.910]Dressed to draw attention
[00:28.152]Hopin' everyone will stare
[00:30.901]If she don't stand out, she thinks she'll disappear
[00:33.908]Wish I could hold her, tell her, show her
[00:37.161]What she wants is already there
[00:43.151]A star is a star
[00:46.157]It doesn't have to try to shine
[00:49.153]Water will fall
[00:51.904]A bird just knows how to fly
[00:55.156]You don't have to tell a flower how to bloom
[00:58.151]Or light how to fill up a room
[01:01.412]You already are what you are
[01:04.408]And what you are is beautiful
[01:13.904]Heard a story the other day
[01:16.658]Took place at the local VA
[01:19.653]A father talking to his dying son
[01:22.660]This was his conversation
[01:25.908]"It's not supposed to be like this
[01:28.847]You can't go first, I can't handle it"
[01:31.854]The boy said, "Dad, now don't you cry
[01:34.607]Remember when I was a child, what you used to tell me when I'd ask why?"
[01:40.597](You'd say) Gravity is gravity
[01:43.847]It doesn't try to pull you down
[01:47.099]Stone is stone
[01:49.608]It can't help, but hold its ground
[01:53.102]The wind just blows, though you can't see
[01:56.097]It's everywhere like I'll always be
[01:59.105]You already are what you are
[02:02.852]And what you are is strong enough
[02:11.608]Look in the mirror
[02:14.358]Now that's another story to tell
[02:17.354]I give love to others
[02:20.106]But I give myself hell
[02:23.602]I'd have to tell myself
[02:26.352]"In every seed, there's a perfect plant"
[02:29.604]Everything I hoped to be
[02:32.353]I already am
[02:37.104]A flower is a flower
[02:40.352]It doesn't have to try to bloom
[02:43.349]And light is light
[02:45.602]Just knows how to fill a room
[02:49.350]And dark is dark
[02:52.103]So the stars have a place to shine
[02:55.352]The tide goes out
[02:57.349]So it can come back another time
[03:01.355]Goodbye makes hello so sweet
[03:04.351]And love is love, so it can teach us
[03:07.604]We already are what we are
[03:13.106]And what we are is beautiful
[03:19.850]And strong enough
[03:22.857]And good enough
[03:25.599]And bright enough
