What You Are (你算什么) - Jewel (珠儿)[00:00:00]
I'm driving around town[00:00:17]
Kinda bored with the windows rolled down[00:00:19]
See a girl on the bus stop bench[00:00:22]
Dressed to draw attention[00:00:25]
Hoping everyone will stare[00:00:27]
If she don't stand out she thinks she'll disappear[00:00:31]
Wish I could hold her tell her show her[00:00:34]
What she wants is already there[00:00:37]
A star is a star[00:00:42]
It doesn't have to try to shine[00:00:45]
Water will fall[00:00:49]
A bird just knows how to fly[00:00:51]
You don't have to tell a flower how to bloom[00:00:54]
Or light how to fill up a room[00:00:58]
You already are what you are[00:01:01]
And what you are is beautiful[00:01:05]
Heard a story the other day[00:01:14]
Took place at the local VA[00:01:16]
A father talking to his dying son[00:01:19]
This was his conversation[00:01:22]
"It's not supposed to be like this[00:01:25]
You can't go first I can't handle it"[00:01:28]
The boy said "Dad now don't you cry [00:01:31]
Remember when I was a child what you used to tell me when I'd ask why "[00:01:34]
(You'd say) Gravity is gravity[00:01:41]
It doesn't try to pull you down[00:01:44]
Stone is stone[00:01:46]
It can't help but hold its ground[00:01:49]
The wind just blows though you can't see[00:01:52]
It's everywhere like I'll always be[00:01:56]
You already are what you are[00:01:59]
And what you are is strong enough[00:02:02]
Look in the mirror[00:02:12]
Now that's another story to tell[00:02:13]
I give love to others[00:02:17]
But I give myself hell[00:02:20]
I'd have to tell myself[00:02:23]
"In every scene there's a perfect plan"[00:02:26]
Everything I hoped to be[00:02:29]
I already am[00:02:32]
A flower is a flower[00:02:37]
It doesn't have to try to bloom[00:02:39]
And light is light[00:02:42]
Just knows how to fill a room[00:02:45]
And dark is dark[00:02:49]
So the stars have a place to shine[00:02:51]
The tide goes out[00:02:55]
So it can come back another time[00:02:57]
Goodbye makes a love so sweet[00:03:00]
And love is love so it can teach us[00:03:04]
We already are what we are[00:03:07]
And what we are is beautiful[00:03:13]
And strong enough[00:03:19]
And good enough[00:03:22]
And bright enough[00:03:25]
