lyrics

I'm starting a rumor about you
Telling everyone I meet on the street
that you're a being of love and light

That you're already good enough
just the way you are this minute
right now

I'm spreading the word
that you don't have to look for love
(you are love)
whispering to my coworkers
you don't have to search for light
(you are light)

I'm starting a rumor
that you're lovable, you're worthy
that all the wisdom, generosity and kindness...

All the acceptance and forgiveness,
understanding, hope, and courage
of the universe already live inside
the inner temple of your heart.

And when the darkness of fear
begins to appear at your door
You only forgot who you are,
You only forgot, and nothing more

I'm starting a rumor
in the hope that it will spread
to the corners of the earth

Until word gets back to you
and you realize
that the rumor is true

I'm starting a rumor about you
I'm starting a rumor...
