Beautiful Life

You can't judge the love by the lover
The sky by its thunder, the road with no sign
You can't make the snow fall in summer
Or make him not want her, not leave her behind
Maybe he'll stay in touch years down the road
And hope that he's still on your mind

The sun may come up and go down again
And I'll still swear it's a beautiful life

Maybe we'll meet up in Denver
Talk about weather, talk of old times
I know every word that we said was what we both meant
Well, we meant it at the time
Promise me that you'll be standing up straight
Chasing rivers and shadows and time

The sun may come up and go down again
And I'll still swear it's a beautiful life

Time flies
Time cries
Time flies
Time cries

So swim to the end of the river
Until there's no shiver left in your spine
Live like there won't be tomorrow
See through your sorrow, see through your own eyes
Try to remember these days down the road
And try to remember this time

The sun may come up and go down again
And I'll still swear it's a beautiful life

The sun may come up, the sun may go down
The sun may come up, the sun may go down
The sun may come up, the sun may go down
I'll still swear it's a beautiful life
