cary cooper: listen

everything is coming true

(cary cooper)
Tom Prasada-Rao & Dave Crossland
tom and dave wrote this song at the rocky mountain folks festival. we were all sitting around talking and laughing and i said to tom, "you know, right now, you look like that picture. the one where you're laughing..."

so they took that line and wrote a song about believing in yourself and all the good things you are.
how many times
have you stood alone and wondered
are you really good enough
how could meet
all the expectations knowing
you were only faking it

you look like a picture
i saw when you were laughing
when everything was coming true
you look like the painting
i always saw inside
i always saw inside of you

i saw you fall
and i heard you make the sound
you make instead of crying
and when you were down
all the friends you thought were friends
they all took off without you

you look like a picture
i saw when you were laughing
when everything was coming true
you look like the painting
i always saw inside
i always saw inside of you

and now you wonder
why did they love you
and if they loved you
why did they leave you
who's the one you really need
to believe
to believe
to believe

you look like a picture
i saw when you were laughing
when everything was coming true
you look like the painting
i always saw inside
i always saw inside of you
