SINGIN IN THE RAIN, MARCH 29TH, 30TH, AND 31ST.
YOU NEED TO GO.
.............I NEED YOU TO GO.
I can't believe it's almost time to leave.
I almost cried in Chorus.
This song, this post, this feeling, all of this.... was supposed to wait for later.
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 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 the lifetime, but 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 rewritten mine by being my friend.
Like a ship pulled from its mooring by a wind off the sea-
Like a seed dropped by a skybird in a distant wood-
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But, 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've 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 as it passes a sun,
Like a seed dropped by a skybird, in a distant wood,
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
I do believe I have been changed for the better.
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But, because I knew you... Because I knew you...
Because I knew you, I have been changed.
For good.
