Somebody told me I'd be fine
Shook her head, smiled, and wiped off mine
And so I saw the sight of strength
And heard the sounds of healing
I learned to read it like a sign
She was beside me, I was fine
Somebody told me it's alright
Each time a nightmare wrecked my night
Then held me close, but not too tight
Till dreaming came upon me
Sometimes I think about those nights
Safe in her arms, where I took flight
And there were times I swore
That our relation was a curse
And there were times that she
Was just the worst, and angrily
We both crashed down, forgiveness helped me see
A grain of comedy, in every tragedy
Somebody showed me with her soul
Lack of perfection makes us whole
And when my dream arrived
She let me go for my desires
She let me go so gently
Told me I would be ok
Now I for her can do the same
Though I can't stop
The tears that fall
Into my smile today
I was a seed, now I'm a rose
Stronger than any wind that blows
And I'll go on, for I have always
More to give, and this I know
''cause somebody told me so
