Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
You had a friend who knew you best now she ignores you
But you deserve more than the crumbs she's leaving for you
And it's okay for you to say exactly what you need
Things seem so simple when you're little, now they're harder
You feel untethered and you're looking for the harbor
And when you don't know who to turn to, you can turn to me
If you're doubting
Second guessing
I have always been a true believer
There was never any question
You have always been a good idea
So many feelings turning circles deep inside you
It's overwhelming and it makes you want to hide
You are growing stronger
And you're learning how to trust yourself
If you're doubting
Second guessing
I have always been a true believer
There was never any question
You have always been a good idea
I know it's hard to imagine
But I've been in your shoes
And I have to be honest
I still get confused
But I believe that God can't make mistakes
And there is a goodness in all he creates
If you're doubting
Second guessing
I have always been a true believer
There was never any question
You have always been a good idea
If you listen
Love will tell ya
You have always been a good idea
You have always been a good idea
