Lyrics:

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 half-way 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 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 by being my friend...

Like a ship blown 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...
Because I knew you...

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 blame 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 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
And because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good.
