《What You Are》歌词

[00:00:00] What You Are (你算什么) - Jewel (珠儿)

[00:00:17] I'm driving around town

[00:00:19] Kinda bored with the windows rolled down

[00:00:22] See a girl on the bus stop bench

[00:00:25] Dressed to draw attention

[00:00:27] Hoping everyone will stare

[00:00:31] If she don't stand out she thinks she'll disappear

[00:00:34] Wish I could hold her tell her show her

[00:00:37] What she wants is already there

[00:00:42] A star is a star

[00:00:45] It doesn't have to try to shine

[00:00:49] Water will fall

[00:00:51] A bird just knows how to fly

[00:00:54] You don't have to tell a flower how to bloom

[00:00:58] Or light how to fill up a room

[00:01:01] You already are what you are

[00:01:05] And what you are is beautiful

[00:01:14] Heard a story the other day

[00:01:16] Took place at the local VA

[00:01:19] A father talking to his dying son

[00:01:22] This was his conversation

[00:01:25] "It's not supposed to be like this

[00:01:28] You can't go first I can't handle it"

[00:01:31] The boy said "Dad now don't you cry

[00:01:34] Remember when I was a child what you used to tell me when I'd ask why "

[00:01:41] (You'd say) Gravity is gravity

[00:01:44] It doesn't try to pull you down

[00:01:46] Stone is stone

[00:01:49] It can't help but hold its ground

[00:01:52] The wind just blows though you can't see

[00:01:56] It's everywhere like I'll always be

[00:01:59] You already are what you are

[00:02:02] And what you are is strong enough

[00:02:12] Look in the mirror

[00:02:13] Now that's another story to tell

[00:02:17] I give love to others

[00:02:20] But I give myself hell

[00:02:23] I'd have to tell myself

[00:02:26] "In every scene there's a perfect plan"

[00:02:29] Everything I hoped to be

[00:02:32] I already am

[00:02:37] A flower is a flower

[00:02:39] It doesn't have to try to bloom

[00:02:42] And light is light

[00:02:45] Just knows how to fill a room

[00:02:49] And dark is dark

[00:02:51] So the stars have a place to shine

[00:02:55] The tide goes out

[00:02:57] So it can come back another time

[00:03:00] Goodbye makes a love so sweet

[00:03:04] And love is love so it can teach us

[00:03:07] We already are what we are

[00:03:13] And what we are is beautiful

[00:03:19] And strong enough

[00:03:22] And good enough

[00:03:25] And bright enough
