Ryan Adams - Life Is Beautiful lyrics

You plant a rose

And if the rose comes up

You're thankful to God

And when it doesn't you cuss him

You raise a child

And when the child grows up

You got to learn to let go

If you can't learn to love him

But, oh, what a beautiful thing when you sing

Hear all them bells ringing out in the street

Hammer strikes the metal and it makes me believe

'Cause if I don't believe in love

Then I don't believe in you

And I do

Now I'm not saying only bad news comes

For the people who want it

But you gotta play that music for who's listening

You got to have someone you wanna sing it to

Oh, what a beautiful thing when you sing

Hear all them bells ringing out in the street

Blue sky cracking and it makes me believe

Oh, hear all them bells ringing out in the street

Hammer strikes the metal and it makes me believe

'Cause if I don't believe in love

Then I don't believe in you

And I do

Close my eyes, see the glorious sunset

Through the windows of a store and I want it

Anyway, if I ever felt haunted

You were there for me

These angry people who are waiting to judge you

Have their own judgment that they'll have live up to

Open your mouth

And if nothing come through

Remember

You're the one that sings

And it's a gift

And life's a beautiful thing

Oh, don't waste it doll

You build a house and if the house comes up

You gotta work on that house

If you want to make it your home

'Cause everything inside that's not something you own

Is what you're taking with you

On the day that you go

And oh, what a beautiful world when we sing

Hear all them bells ringing out in the street

Hammer strikes the metal and it makes me believe

Hear all them bells ringing out in the street

Oh, hammer strikes the metal and it makes me believe

'Cause if I don't believe in love

Then I don't believe in you

And I do
