For Good

Dedicated to my Sister, Noamie. Je t'aime plv <3

For Good (From the Broadway Musical: Wicked) 

I've heard it saidThat people come into our lives for a reasonBringing something we must learnAnd we are ledTo those who help us most to growIf we let themAnd we help them in returnWell, I don't know if I believe that's trueBut I know I'm who I am todayBecause I knew you...

Like a comet pulled from orbitAs it passes a sunLike a stream that meets a boulderHalfway through the woodWho can say if I've been changed for the better?But because I knew youI have been changed for good

It well may beThat we will never meet againIn this lifetimeSo let me say before we partSo much of meIs made from what I learned from youYou'll be with meLike a handprint on my heartAnd now whatever way our stories endI know you have re-written mineBy being my friend...

Like a ship blown from its mooringBy a wind off the seaLike a seed dropped by a skybirdIn a distant woodWho can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you

Because I knew you

I have been changed for good

And just to clear the airI ask forgivenessFor the things I've done you blame me for

But then, I guess we knowThere's blame to share

And none of it seems to matter anymore

Like a comet pulled from orbitAs it passes a sunLike a stream that meets a boulderHalfway through the wood

Like a ship blown from its mooringBy a wind off the seaLike a seed dropped by a bird in the wood

Who can say if I've been

Changed for the better?I do believe I have beenChanged for the better

And because I knew you...

Because I knew you...

Because I knew you...

I have been changed for good...
