It's the time and the place Every line on your face It's the truth and the lie It's to live and to die Oh, what a beautiful world It's a girl and a boy And that first taste of joy And it's an old photograph Of two hearts torn in half Oh, what a beautiful world We build our hopes up high Per chance to someday fly Across a clear blue sky to someplace new It's a walk in the park Or a shot in the dark It's a thief in the night Or the first ray of light Oh, what a beautiful world We live our legends down Wake up in lost and found Become that highway sound And roll on through It's the rise and the fall Of the clocks on the wall And it's the first and the last Of your days flying past Oh, what a beautiful world Oh, what a beautiful world
