From the recording everything is coming true
(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.)
Lyrics
How many times have you stood alone and wondered
Are you really good enough
And how could you meet all the expectations knowing
That you were only faking it
You look like the picture I saw when you were laughing
And 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 the picture I saw when you were laughing
And 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
But who’s the one you really need
To believe, to believe?
You look like the picture I saw when you were laughing
And everything was coming true
You look like the painting I always saw inside
I always saw inside of you
