Look, I know there ain't much time
But just give me a number
A tiny ray of light
When I get tossed asunder
I don't say it enough
But just know that I love you
I pray you hear me now
Though I can hardly speak
And though my heart is crying out
My voice is much too weak
But soon you will be free
And we're all gonna miss you
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
The sun again will shine
Someday in the future
When there'll be no more crying
I just wish it would happen sooner
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
Someday we'll all end up beneath a stone upon a hill
Where wildflowers are growing and the river runs still
All your friends and family gather round
Tell their favorite stories and lay you in the ground
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
What a beautiful thing
What a terribly beautiful thing
To be human
