I was born with tears in my eyes

Like everybody else I know

Kicking and screaming

All I could see was a light in a world so cold

No-one to hold you

Feels so lonely

Left out on your own

But we were born with tears in our eyes

And that’s how we learned the strength to fight

It’s a beautiful life

Well, you won’t always see it that way

When you’re deep in a hole

With nowhere to go

And you can’t see it change

(it’s a beautiful life)

Coz it’s just out of sight

It’s a beautiful life

You’re scared, got the fear every day

Sounds like everybody else I know

Takes a hole in the ground

Or the sky falling down

Before we can let it show

If you’re just like me

You’re trying to believe

That it’s all going to work out fine

We can live with the doubt

We’re trying to do without

Maybe we don’t have to fight

It’s a beautiful life

Well, you won’t always see it that way

When you’re deep in a hole with nowhere to go

And you can’t see it change

(it’s a beautiful life)

Coz it’s just out of sight

It’s a beautiful life

I tried so hard to keep hanging on

Well maybe you should just let it go

Let the hope in your heart break the fall

Sing with me

It’s a beautiful life

Well, you won’t always see it that way

When you’re deep in a hole with nowhere to go

And you can’t see it change

(it’s a beautiful life)

Coz it’s just out of sight

It’s a beautiful life
